Kymoto ISStudio (Inno Script Studio)

[Midas]

Inno Script Studio provides help to simplify the creation of Microsoft Windows installations by allowing the generation of Inno Setup scripts by use of the intuitive interface to reduce the need to manually edit the Inno Setup scripts.

Overall, a rather modern interface that should be interesting to portabilizing geeks. Unfortunately, although the required Inno Setup Compiler can be placed in ISStudio folder and pointed to by writing a '.' (single dot, without quotes) in its "Options | Compiler" appropriate field, ISStudio writes it's settings to the system's registry...

Writes to:

Download installer for current version (v2.0.0.17) from http://www.kymoto.org/.

Hi,

I'm the author of Inno Script Studio, and thought it best to let you know a portable version is in the works and should be released shortly.

I am still investigating what changes need to be done to ensure Inno Script Studio works correctly as a portable application, so any pointers would be very welcome.

Hy there, Kymoto, and thanks for checking in TPFC forums.

Great news about your Kymoto ISStudio -- be sure to let us know when it's portable, so this topic can be moved to 'Portable Freeware Submission' providing for more public exposure; for starters you could peruse the FAQ page at http://www.portablefreeware.com/faq.php...

Inno Script Studio is currently v2.1.0.20 (changelog at http://www.kymoto.org/products/inno-scr ... se-history).

The standard InnoSetup package includes a command-line switch to enable portable mode for ISStudio.

Instructions:

- Download QuickStart Pack (innosetup-qsp-X.X.X-unicode.exe)
- Run installer with /portable=1
- Check ISStudio, Preprocessor, Encryption, etc within setup (or just ISStudio if you wish)
- After installation, copy InnoSetup + ISStudio folders to wherever you want
- Uninstall both from computer
- Change path to compiler (InnoSetup folder) in ISStudio's "Settings.ini" or under "Tools > Options > Compiler Settings" within program (relative paths allowed)

Code: Select all

[Options\Compiler]
InnoCompilerPath=X:\SomeFolder\InnoSetup

The very top of "Settings.ini" should contain:

Code: Select all

[Portable]
Portable=1

Brief testing reveals some insignificant settings (window state, toolbars) written to HKCU\Software\Kymoto Solutions\Inno Script Studio 2 + empty InnoSetup key created ... so not stealth.
