I need PyWin under the covers, that is, to install it as part of an application, but in such a way that it isn't visible to users. I'm concerned about a so-called "power-user", seeing the Python directory and/or the corresponding entry in the 'Add/Remove Programs' list, breaking my app by uninstalling what he/she thinks is removing an 'unnecessary program.'
Unfortunately, I don't see any installer scripts, like for Inno Setup or NSIS in the source archive I just downloaded from SourceForge. I'd love to volunteer to do something like this for the larger community of Pythonista, but I can't find any info (via Google) about this. AFAIK, the critical info is related to the registry settings for the Win32-related elements. I'm especially concerned about installation of the COM infrastructure, as getting the other registry settings is mostly tedious (but doable), trial-and-error exports from the Registry. The rest "should" be simply a matter of creating the primary directory structure and copying the archive files to it. Does anyone have pointers ?
