Something to work on.  Lets work out parts downloading issues and we'll • set
up something on the site to allow the easy download of the files from your
software.  Would you prefer directories with unzipped parts from each
update?

I'm not seeing the benefit of that -- it would make more sense to have a
simple directory of the *current* files.

Better idea :)

I think that might be easier, but I don't know much of anything
about InstallShield.

InstallShield is a tool whose primary purpose is to create installation
programs.

I knew that - maybe I wasn't clear.  I'm not familiar with working with
InstallShield and _creating_ installation programs.

So you're talking about a permanent text file online which gives updated
info about what files to grab?  That way, an old install of MLCad (in the
future) could download all the current updates?

Got it in 2.

??  Sorry I'm not following...

(...) I think he already mentioned it, and so did I a few e-mails ago. "simple directory with the *current* files" see ya Rui Martins (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
