Windows Installer for Xconq


Hello,

  Due to popular demand, I have created an installer program to 
assist in setting up Xconq on Windows. This can be gotten at:
  http://eric_mcdonald.home.comcast.net/xconq

  It should be entirely self-contained, meaning that you should 
not need to go out and install any supporting things first. I will 
improve it further in the times ahead. Some of the features:
  (1) Can choose install path.
  (2) Creates a menu in the Programs menu group in the Start Menu.
  (3) Creates a Desktop icon for xconq.exe.
  (4) Has an uninstaller.
  (5) Can be uninstalled from Add/Remove Programs control panel.
  (6) Has shortcuts (in Start|Programs|Xconq) for HTML 
documentation.
  (7) xconq.exe is associated with .xcq files.
  Things that still need to be done:
  (1) Bind icons to the xconq and imfapp executables (which will 
also be reflected in the shortcuts).
  (2) Make xconq.exe run from any working directory. This will 
make feature #7 actually be useful. Once this is taken care of, 
you will be able to double-click on saved xconq games (.xcq files) 
and have them launch Xconq.
  TODO #1 should be quite easy. I will take care of it soon. TODO 
#2 might be easy, but I need to research it more.

  As always, feedback is welcome.

  Enjoy,
    Eric
