Summary: installation  - overwrite files (windows)

Initial Comment:
Since pd-ext is a program that gets renewed quite often, it makes some sense 
that a new installation overwrites the previous one.

While installing pd-ext in windows, the program asks at all times if one file 
should be overwritten - making it necessary to keep the y key pressed for 
several minutes.

An option "always" on the "overwrite file" dialog or a checked option 
"overwrite all existing files" before the installation starts would make the 
process easier.

Hi,

I just installed 0.40.3-extended-20080603, and noticed that the contents
of ../extra are now overwritten automatically - which I think is good.

To make everything complete, 2 more things would be ok:
- the same behaviour for files in ../doc and other dependencies in
/windows/system32
- that files in doc and extra folders wouldn't be written as read-only. or
else, when installing a newer version it's necessary to go to these folders
and put all items back to write-allowed.

João
