Hi Steve,

Thanks for the quick response.

OK - I notice that it misses out the TYP file and indexing files. It
would be good if it included them (please could you add them into the
script).

Unfortunately, this doesn't work on my Ubuntu system as it's missing
some part of makensis. So I installed the windows version and that runs
OK and produces an installer.

Someone will have to do that for me as I don't have access to those
systems.

Cheers,
