Re: (Windows) has anyone successfully ship a product build on GNUstep?

[Sungjin Chun]

Our company(small company) had used GNUstep application internally.  
The application is installed using Install Shield generated set up  
file but basically it just copies all files to "FIXED" location(in  
our case, C:\EOS) and I did make some modification so that instead of  
environment variable, registry values are used. Also, during install  
the set up application appends path environment variable (C:\EOS 
\Tools). Final modification is all user profile ($HOME/GNUstep like  
thing) is under C:\EOS\Profile\%USERNAME%. And added gdomap, gdnc,  
gpbs to the Startup group so that it be started before using GNUstep  
application.

Hope this can help.
