+0.98d and above IMaCh we are using a windows installer (Inno setup 5.5.5).
In order to facilitate the use of IMaCh we associated the .imach
extension to two features: editing and running. Thus by right clicking
on a foo.imach file you can either 'edit'the file (default) with
the notepad editor or 'run' it with gnuplot (you need a recent version).
- But we discovered that on some computers, people are not allowed
- to modify the windows registry and need to have Administrator privileges.
-
-
- Thus we built two windows installer: a standard setup which will install
- the progam (usually in \Program Files\imach and will
- modify the registry to associate .imach extension to notepad and imach, and a
- second which will not alter the registry. With this second installer you
- will be able to install the programs in your home directory and
- run it by clicking on the imach.exe icon. But you won't be able
- to use the facility of the right clicking.

You need to have the Administrator privileges to install the
+software. We don't propose anymore an installation which does not
+alter registry because we think that you all have access, even
+temporarly, to Administrator privileges (usally by right clicking the
+.exe you can choose "Install with Administrators privileges".
