Information about “PROINSTALLER”
Programmers, here is a program that allows you to automate even the
most complex application installations. One command starts this program
which walks users through the entire installation -- complete with
prompt screens and help text that you create.
Make it easier for your customers to install your software on their
fixed disk without having to run a Batch file or follow intricate
instructions buried in a read.me file.
Your end users have the option to accept/or change the following: which
drive to install from; which drive to install to; which directory and/or
sub-directory to install in; whether to add path statement; whether to
change buffer statement; whether to change file statement.
This program does take up 200K of disk space itself. Therefore, it is
most appropriate for applications with lots of disks.
