I would like to know if a particular software package is installed on my computer, and if so, what is the path to it. My idea is to search and read the windows registry. I would appreciate any ideas of how to do this in Euphoria. Thank you.
There is probably a library in the archives for this, though I don't know of one offhand. Possibly win32lib already has this builtin.
If you want to do it the hard way, use dll.e to wrap http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms724897(VS.85).aspx, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms724845(VS.85).aspx, etc (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms725488(VS.85).aspx for more examples).
