I have placed Mugunth's Tux Paint 0.9.13 + Stamps 2003.12.23 + Tamil update
installer for Windows (itself, translated to Tamil), on SourceForge, and
added a link on the TP website.

(Also, see Mugunth's email to me below)

John and others, it'd be good if we could get the Windows installer
to detect locale when it starts up (and perhaps even have a language choice
as the first step of installing, so the other installation steps will
appear in the right language).


Also, I might be asking for a lot, but it might be cool to have the
Windows Installer app for Tux Paint ask a few questions about configuration
(like what language to use, full screen enabled or not, etc.) and then
write out a "tuxpaint.cfg" automatically.

Ben, it might be neat to have a setup step in the Debian package, too!
Then people could do "dpkg-reconfigure" to get a nice ncurses setup screen
(at least for global configuration).


It'd be a very cool nicety!


In the future, I'd really like to NOT have 30+ versions of the
EXE installer... not necessarily due to space constraints (although that
can be an issue), but because the Tux Paint website is _already_ pretty
cluttered. :^(

I'd really hate to hear what a usability expert has to say about it right
now, even. ;^)

Hi Bill Kendrick,
I have made a full installer (based on John Popplewell's installer not 
much change)  which will install Tamil version and the stamps at one go.

I have made this to enable the tamil users to download and install tamil 
version without the need for them to tweak the config files to get tamil 
display.

This has been uploaded in our thamizha site(which hosts localised 
version of Mozilla 1.5 and other tamil downloads)

It can be downloaded from this URL:
http://www.thamizha.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=4

Can this installer be placed at your windows download site also?

Once John Popplewell comes out with a installer with language support, 
we can make a new installer based on that. Till than i feel this current 
installer will be usefull for the tamil users. What you feel?

Regards,
Mugunth
