* Remove oodles of pointless file date and size stamps. I caught the WiseTim Peters2001-07-301-112/+0

* Massive fiddling to get the install to work at all on a Win2K box under aTim Peters2001-07-302-3/+681
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | plain unprivileged User acct: + Had to duplicate Wise's Uninstal.wse script, in order to change the line at its end that unconditionally tries to write uninstall info under HKLM. This is our new file Uninstal.wse, which must be included by python20.wse instead of using Wise's version. + In every other case we write to HKLM, also write to HKCU instead (we were already doing that in *most* places, but not quite all). + If the user doesn't have admin privs, the DLLs we usually write to the system dir are written to the root of the Python installation instead. That's python22.dll, plus the two MSVC runtime DLLs. + Added a new component "Register file extensions". Registering .py etc is done under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, and that also requires admin privs; i.e., AFAICT it's impossible for an unprivileged user to accomplish this. In the component selection dialog, if the user doesn't have admin privs I gray out this new component so the user knows they aren't getting file extensions. After all that, Python installs, the Start Menu entries are OK, it runs its test suite to completion, and the uninstaller works too. Only known problem so far is that the integration with Win2K's Add/Remove subsystem isn't quite right yet in this irritating case.

| | | | | | | 1. Only .py files were getting installed. 2. Empty CVS directories were getting created. Both were due to trying to get away with "recursively copy *.py" one- liner scripting.

* Updated to Wise 8.14 (web update).Tim Peters2001-07-291-224/+281
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Got rid of useless "Welcome" screen. Folded Tcl/Tk into the main Python component. Bug introduced during upgrade: Start Menu entries didn't work if installation was to a path with an embedded space, because the enclosing quotes somehow got dropped on the cmdline args. Repaired. Years of wizard-generated code blocks left this script hard to read. Added many more comments, blank lines, and rearranged related code into related blocks where they had drifted apart. Added %_PYMAJOR_% and %_PYMINOR_% compiler vrbls, and reworked script items to use them as appropriate. This should slash the amount of hand-fiddling needed when version numbers change. Indeed, in the body of the script, only the first line should need changing now. Deleted unreferenced wizard-generated compiler vrbls.
* Woo hoo! Relative paths! This is, alas, partly braindead: When the newTim Peters2001-07-291-108/+140
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "relative paths" option is enabled, 8.1 rewrites *every* path to be relative to PCbuild (the dir containing the .wse script), even absolute paths you type in by hand, paths to the Wise installation itself, and even paths to the Windows directories (sheesh). Only way to stop it is to start a path with a variable reference, and we screwed ourselves before by not using the predefined %_WISE_% vrbl to point to the Wise installation. Repaired that old, repeated and well-hidden mistake. Also: + Got rid of the %_SRC_% vrbl (such paths always relative to PCBuild now). + Changed the %_DOC_% vrbl to prompt for the location of the unzipped HTML files (defaults to ..\html, cuz that's where I put them, but I expect I'll change that later cuz I always hated mixing the generated docs into the CVS tree ... Guido, if you're reading this, where did you unpack the docs when building a Windows installer? Happy to oblige.). + Stopped the generated installer from filling up the entire screen (got rid of the massive blue background gradient -- new option). + Added the helpful app publisher and app URL registry entries that Win2K displays in its version of Add/Remove.
