btw. if you really want to have a go at the scripts you need
cvsdeps at d:\cvsdeps
smartloader at d:\smartloader (compiled for both release and debug)
sysfiles.zip extracted to d:\cvsbin\sysfiles
cygwin at c:\cygwin.
That should be enough so the release cvs and debug cvs scripts work
(they deploy to d:\cvsbin). That's where the wxs files expect to find
their files also.
You could write your own scripts of course :) the only thing that's
unusual is they bind the executable files to the smartloader (with
mkmanifest)... that gives the per-application paths and the ability to
find the correct revision of a file across multiple installs. If you're
only testing that bit doesn't matter.
