Inno setup is reckoned to be a good start for Windows. There are lots around.

it's funny how my question is being interpreted, i just ask you "OFF-TOPIC" 
which install You personally use.
I don't need all the info around it. Just like a survey, an simple short answer 
is good to me for this topic.

Posts: 263                Windows: Inno Setup (Windows application running 
under Wine)
Mac: DMG Canvas (obviously creating a dmg, not an installer)
Linux: InstallJammer (Windows application running under Wine)

A real cross-platform solution would be lovely.

Its funny how my answer is interpreted. 
I gave you the link to the other post because I know this post is likely to 
generate another religious discussion, and I was hoping to spare you the 'which 
is best' answers all over again.


The answer to your actual question then:

Advanced Installer and Inno Setup  on Windows.
FileStorm  on Mac
Zip for Linux

Kermit, no offence meant.

It's just that i don't need to read topics which i already have read all...
I search the forum before i post something, but this one is more about what 
"you" like.

I'm investigating a "cross-platform" solution i've found to give it a shot 
perhaps.
But i must know what the community uses. (as it's 100% meant for the RS 
community).

Also the software should be provided in the form of multiple versions (1 
version will be free, also for commercial use) and RB scriptable.

Just that you might wanted to know, it should be simple as possible like the 
one's you use and anybody else.

For everyone, please follow the main question. As i just need to know what you 
use, this should not be a complete discussion.
