Hey all
In order to make Pd as accessible as possible also to casual Pd users on Windows, I think it should come as an installer (as other software does as well). That's one of the things I think Pd-extended did right.
What's the stance about it from Miller and other people?
I just went ahead and tried to do it myself. Please check: http://www.netpd.org/~roman/tmp/nsis_installer/
It's based on the NSIS scripting language and compiler. My silent hope is that the reason for Pd currently being delivered as zip is simply laziness, and that you, Miller, would be willing to adopt the script. I'd welcome any feedback.
