installator?

I use newlisp under Windows98SE2 and Windows2000



When I install newLISP under Windows98SE2

I can't run newLISP-tk because I have no

environment variable PROGRAMFILES!



Of course, I can use notepad (for example) and

alter file newlisp-tk.config, but it is the same that

I copy (or unzip) newLISP-files to my favorite

directory and alter newlisp-tk.config with notepad.



More over, situation, when user can't use newlisp

because of he (she) has limited rights

on own computer (sometimes) is NOT good...



I think, we must have newlisp as zip-file too.



P.S. May by the best installation will be such:

I unzip newlisp.zip to my favorite directory and run

(if want)

  newlisp install.lsp

?

The new setup routine using the PROGRAMFILES environment  variable was done   to facilitate installing in a Windows standard location for 3rd party software using the newlisp.dll and for international installs. I am sorry that this breaks installs on Windows 98 machines, unfortunately I have no 98 system available to work on a fix. The best would be to put "set PROGRAMFILES=c:WindowsProgram Files" or whatever the correct path is in the autoexec.bat file of your system before installing newLISP_tk.



Installing in a different location during install will always make it necessary to edit newlisp-tk.config. This would then be the same as unzipping to a different location.
