Nevertheless I will try to create another setup-file to install The GIMP for Windows. I am currently looking at creating a setup-file using Nullsoft's "SuperPIMP" install system (NSIS) -> http://www.nullsoft.com/free/nsis/ I am new to this; does anyone has experience with this package ? Could the original creator of the GimpWin-installation (I think it is Tor) please send me the source of his setup-file ? I guess that would make life easier... Currently I am aiming to include just the files as in the current GIMPwin-release. To avoid the discussion about what should (not) be included with the GIMP-installation... I have seen that discussion on gimp-developer, but missed any outcome of it (assuming it had some kind of a conclusion). Greetings, Martijn Weisbeek http://weisbeek.cjb.net
