hi Euman, The installer needn't be cross-platform but if you could achieve this, then it would be great. For the mean time you could implement the win32 version. Besides a lot of pple use windows. i wish you all my luck. BTW, I have a question for u, 1) Can you find the zero based index of a menu item using its id without looping through the whole menu set?

I wish you much luck and if I can be of assitance, let me know. Ive been working on an installer for 'almost' a couple years now. (No Win32lib, little Euphoria and lots and lots of Win32 API) Pitfalls: Cross-Windows Environment implementation Cross-Windows Registry fondling (Security issues) Cross-Windows Graphics Utilization Encapsilating files, what compression (will function) Cross-Windows Security for Software Company (updates from Web, email passkeys based on user account registration before they D/L a on the fly passkey version (each D/L'er will need a private key emailed to them to extract.)) No.1 issue, keep it small (-70k) and very fast......... etc...etc...etc I thought it would be easy at first heh, was I ever wrong.... I am just about ready to release an installer that will make INNO sit-up and take notice...(Source code included) Perhaps after Rob has the final release of Euphoria 2.4 (Ive said something similar before, so dont hold me to it.)
