Today,
I announce the release of DInstaller. It is written in C# just to get
everything up to date with the latest dmd, tango, etc. However Mango support
was removed as C# has a way to connect to other applications but I am having a
hard time using it predictably.
DMD
DMD+TANGO
DMD+TANGO+TANGOBOS
DMD+PHOBOS+TANGO
DMD+PHOBOS+TANGO+TANGOBOS
DSSS
DDBG
DFL
are all supported.
I hope this keeps some people from having to ask the question of how do I
install DMD on windows(won't but I always like to hope).
Any questions ask them here.

I'm not at a Windows machine, so I'll just ask the question instead of
experiment for myself.
When I last tried DInstaller (1.004) I had two problems: First, I couldn't
tell where it installed to. Second, it'd be a lot nicer if it had some
documentation on how to use it.
If I remember correctly it installed to my user folder (D:\Users\Lord Sauron\)
I would suggest writing some code to make it fail if it tries to install to a
path which has a space in it (since I'm told that it will not function if it
does - I haven't stress-tested it to find out though).
As an aside, I'm surprised you're not using a NullSoft Scriptable Installer,
which are free, open-source, and open you up to multiple platforms. I don't
use 'em, so I'm not patronizing you, but I'm interested to know why you went
with C#.

I used C# because I have in the past and this was just to get it done quickly.
I will release a version wrote in D sometime. The whole system is revised this
time however I didn't do the part that keeps you from installing to path with a
space in it. I think the space part works however because I did it once and it
required the command line to be something like: cd C:/"Program Files"/D. And I
got tired of typing it. Now I simply edit my Path variable however I didn't do
so in this install because I don't want to mess up my system trying to edit the
system :-) However if you can find out if it truly fails to work under a
spaced folder name(not just very hard to get to work) I will edit the code and
release 1.005.1. I didn't use Nullsoft as I plan to make my installer in D a
little more flexible for installing D stuff.
As for the documentation I am doing a lot of stuff right now but basically it's
unzip, double click D Installer.exe and follow on screen directions. I will
write instructions when/before I do the D version.
And sorry for messing up installing D for you Chris Miller.

I forgot that it also has a textfield at bottom now that lets you tell it where
to install(you have to as there is no default location).
