It can. I don't consider Inno Setup user friendly, so it's not easy to know how particular tasks can be achieved. Additionally to the "naked" Inno Setup I can recommend ISTool, but it doesn't make the sitiation much better. (Talking about version 4.0.9 of both programs, don't know the latest versions.) > By the way, I upgraded to the latest version of INNO, > and it does a much better job of compression, which is > good because the install package now includes all the > Translator files too. Here is a sample script for Inno Setup 4.0.9, that does (hopefully) what Elliot wants (some lines are wrapping!): ----------------------------------------------------------- ; for Inno Setup 4.0.9 [Setup] AppName=JL AppVerName=JL 0.01 AppPublisher=J=FCrgen L=FCthje DefaultDirName={pf}\JL DefaultGroupName=JL Compression=zip/9 OutputBaseFilename=jl_inst [Files] Source: jl_show.exe; DestDir: {app}; Flags: ignoreversion Source: jl_show.exw; DestDir: {app}; Flags: ignoreversion Source: sample.jl; DestDir: {app}; Flags: ignoreversion [Icons] Name: {group}\JL show; Filename: {app}\jl_show.exe; Parameters: {app}\sampl= e.jl; IconIndex: 0 [Tasks] Name: associate; Description: Associate JL files with this program (recomme= nded).
