Freeman Installer & Uninstaller for NT v1.50
Copyright (C) 1994 Freeman-Teresa Software
All Rights Reserved
Introduction
============
- Automatically install your NT applications onto your users' system.
- Native NT Win32 installer built (almost) from the ground up.
- Optional automatical uninstall. You just install one more file and
your users just have one more program item.
- Changes made to the users' system will be logged and will be
displayed in the uninstaller.
- NT Registry support.
- NT file security limited support.
- Selective install. Your users can choose which part to install.
- File version checking.
- Optionally execute external programs.
- 3D dialogs and controls (ctl3d32.dll).
- GUI interface letting you specify your installation with just
point'n'click. No more script writing.
- Displays dialog boxes while copying files. Bitmaps can be used
as ordinary controls in those dialogs.
- INI entry setting.
- Usual stuff like file compress/decompress, program item creation.
- Optionally generates C++ source code to compile and link to get
an integrated and customized EXE, minimizing the size of the
installer. You can also customize the code by simply editing
the generated C++ file, no more DLLs!
- Four step-by-step tutorials are included. Lots of screen shots
leading you through every procedure. I promise when you finish
with those tutorials, you will be ready to work on your real
installation.
- Common Q&A for trouble shooting.
The tutorials are high recommended. They will get you up and
running in no time. They take up some space though, you can
delete them when you are done.
