Files\LDraw, from your instructions I am assuming you recommend installing it
in the location of the ldraw files? I added an environment variable of:-

| LDRAWDIR=D:\Program Files\Ldraw

and rebooted.
However running the command:-

| D:\Img2Sticker\install.pl [LDRAWDIR]

gives the error:-

| img2sticker installer
| The system cannot find the file specified.
| Please add [LDRAWDIR] to your PATH environment variable
| Please copy the tutorial directory to a location of your choice

I'm not certain from this which path it is that it can't find and also why it
thinks there isn't an LDRAWDIR path.

Any ideas?

OK. I'm not 100% sure where that error comes from... could you run
'install.pl [LDRAWDIR] 2>err' and email me the err file that comes out. The last
two lines indicate success (which they should do more obviously) while the
others seem to be a system error which should have been caught. Strange.

To get it up and running quickly just copy everything to the directory and make
a batch file img2sticker.bat which looks like

perl -I[I2SDIR] [I2SDIR]\img2sticker.pl %*

where [I2SDIR] is the directory you've installed everything in. NB. This .bat
file can go anywhere really and so long as it is seen by the PATH variable it
*should*run.

That is really the whole point of the installer so I might just leave out
install.pl and give that instruction instead. Seems to be easier.

I'm currently working on a new version in C which should be much easier.
