sorry that was very unclear. I have an application I've just written and I need to make it available to other partners in a research consortium. I therefore need to write an easy-to-use installer for the application. I need to set up the usual kind of stuff like installation directory, places where settings are stored, places where user files are stored, that kind of thing.
