Introduction
============
Freeman Installer & Uninstaller v1.5 is an install utility facilitating
the installation of Windows applications. Installer creates install log
automatically. Uninstaller reads the log and displays the changes
in a structured & easy-to-read format and, on request, tries to undo
the changes. A front end generating INF files to be interpreted and/or
generating C++ source files to be compiled and linked to get a tailored
and integrated EXE without the need to add a single line of code.
Selective installation. Setting/adding INI entries, registration keys.
Displays dialog boxes while copying files. File version checking. Easy
variable substitution. Customizations by C++ subclassing. Suitable for
anyone, from dummy to C/C++ programmer. Context sensitive, Example-
based online doc (many common customizations are discussed).
The class lib needed to link with the generated C++ source file is
only provided to registered users. But getting registered does NOT
necessarily mean paying. Read the online manual for more info.
