python-a-mingw-us zip file packaging

 

Brian,

I guess you know that to make the *.zip file "package" you just do a

$ make package

in the respective build directory.  I have 2 build directories:

build-mingw32
build-mingw64


The NSIS packager was also working, but I commented it out when I
discovered it was munging my carefully created


   Python a-mingw-us


*.bmp image.


Maybe my quality standards are too high, but NSIS scrunching my pretty
bitmap was something I did not want to bear.

So that needs to be looked into as time permits.

I generated a *.bmp file from the nice *.svg.  I don't know that the
*.bmp file made it into the source tree since there was then a
question about the perfect size required.

(How else to prevent ugly scrunching except providing the size
required to avoid scrunching?)

The *.svg file is in there though.

Some of the NSIS flexibility is limited because it was being run from
CMake.
