SFX INFORMATION

The SFX Installer offers the first one file archive/installation tool
widely available on the OS/2 platform. It marries the installation
tool for your software and it's own setup tools into one friendly
package for point and click installation setups that are personalized
for your software. SFX allows you to build an  archive in standard or
self-extracting format, with or without the installer.

There are no cryptic scripts to learn to write other than any
setupstrings (samples provided) you need to place folders and icons
on the desktop. The installation setup tool allows you to point and
click a complete setup. When you are satisfied with how the archive
should be setup you can save all the information and recall it when
needed. SFX will save and retrieve as many setups as you have disk 
space for and will help the author of multiple programs to keep them
organized. It can also be used as a general zip file distribution
builder as well.

The SFX Installer includes several novel details for the software
distributer including:

1) Dll and help file placement (and tracking) into existing LIBPATH
and SET HELP directories so your user may avoid adding to these paths
and also avoid rebooting before usage.

2) An uninstallation script is written at install time specific to
the users installation that will, track all files your program has
installed and remove any WPS objects created at installation time.
This uninstall script can be modified if needed via a plugin.

3) Authors can make use of Plugin scripts to overcome any 
installation limitations that your installations need to perform.
(examples included)


Although the installer is distributed as shareware through BMT Micro
(http://www.bmtmicro.com), we invite freeware authors to use the
installer free of charge as a small token of appreciation for their
selfless work. Please read the license for more details.
