Applies to: Finish your application - the build function Besides
generating the actual program files, the extended method builds a setup
routine and wraps it around your application. This setup routine works
like a wizard that guides users through the installation process as you
know it from other applications. It allows the user to choose the destination
folder for the installation, to name the start-menu shortcut, etc... Here
you can also assign your own desktop and program icon and License and
Readme files. The setup file generated by this method is a single standalone
"setup.exe"
file. |

Encode Config-File TIP: invisible colors (non rectangle icons) will only work if you create an original 32 x 32 pixels icon in your graphics editor. Shrunk icons will not be able to have transparent areas (alpha color).
