Hi Edward, Last week I had high hopes for the setup.py generated installer approach, it looked like it was going to solve several things at once.
This week I am in "a maze of twisty little passages, all alike", and thoroughly disenchanted and disgusted with the state of (my understanding of) python app/package management. (Distutils, distribute & setuptools: the names of the heads of the dog guarding the exit (entrance?) to the underworld). I'm going to give one more serious push in the next 2-3 days and before giving up and focusing on things like the registering filetypes script for people who are using the nightlies or portable archive version. So, if the wind doesn't fill my sails this weekend, yes the NSIS installer is the way to go. I'll likely post specifics of what I'm struggling with as I wend my way. -matt On Thu, May 30, 2013 at 9:16 AM, Edward K. Ream <[email protected]> wrote: > This is a project thread.
