Very professional installer, David.

On windows XP one minor issue with the generated quicklaunch shortcut -
the home directory was undefined so it threw an error looking for
speclist.txt. Easily corrected by defining the "Start in" directory  as
"C:\Program Files\Pitifil\".
No problems with  parsing the test rtf file.
Thanks a lot, this will be very useful.
