New Option for Installing Applications - W.A.I.T.


Recommended Posts

I wanted to ask for one thing, I am using WAIT for network installations in smaller companies and I would really appreciate ability to define variables in wait.ini, e.g. InstallServer=\\server\apps\install because of source migrations... Do U think it is possible?

Added in version 0.11

nstallServer=\\server\apps\install

why, what does that make your WAIT programme do???

If I understand correctly the request is to have user defined variables. Therefore you can set this line in the INI file

%InstallServer%=\\server\apps\install

and then in the CFG file you can use %InstallServer% in the CMD lines.

For example

CMD=%InstallServer%\MaxThon.exe

This way all you have to do is update the INI file when you need to use a different path.

Since I am loving this program, and there is no doubt that newcomers will have questions, I decided to put this up.

W.A.I.T. FAQ

Would you be interested in posting this over on the WAIT forums?

version 12 is released!

Includes Bitmap backgrounds and user defined checkboxes (and other things)

version .12

-------------

1) Added "UseBitmap" to put a bitap on the background

2) Added "Bitmap File" to enter the name of the bitmap file that should be used for the background

[Config]

UseBitmap=1

BitmapFile=103.bmp

3) Changed all buttons to have a transparent effect so that the bitmap can show through

4) Added "Selected" and "UnSelected" for the grahpics that should be used for all checkboxes (Default is the normal checks)

These icons need to be "small" icons (16x16)

[icons]

Selected=ledon.ico

Unselected=ledoff.ico

5) Added text replacement for all hardcoded words

[Text Replacement]

Name=Name

Catagory=Catagory

Description=Description

Excludes=Excludes

Required For=Required For

Requires=Requires

Reboot Required=Reboot Required

Must Be Installed=Must Be Installed

Title=Windows Application Installation Tool

This is the text that appears in the ToolTip popup window (Except for Title). This way you can change the words to your liking.

Nope, I would like to translate WAIT to czech/slovak language - I can translate buttons (and of course Comments etc.), only things I am not able to translate without using tools such as ResourceHacker is Required for, Excluded etc...

Added in v 0.12 (use the config program - makes it much easier)
