Don't get me wrong, because this is already some great functionality, but would 
you consider at some point expanding this so that you could specify a 
subdirectory under the parent for each of the specified directories? Typically 
when I set up my projects I'll put things like images in their own directory 
under the root.

Yes, Dir to Include lets you include a whole directory of files with 
your installer. Version 8.2 lets you specify a list of directories, so 
now you can have more than one. 

This feature is especially useful if you have a number of images or 
sounds to be included in your project. Just put them in a directory in 
your development folder, and add the name of the directory to Dir to Include. 

The current installer puts everything into the home directory in 
\Program Files on the device. The only exception is that you can also 
specify "Windows" in the resource's Install To.
