Errata: s:linux/windows/dinstaller.nsi:linux/win/installer.nsi:

BTW. Changes on this fork:

- Built in all the needed components. No downloads during installation.

- Checks if another dmd version is already installed, and force to uninstall it before proceed. If uninstaller fails, installation can be forced by the command "dmd-2.064.2.exe /f".

- Changes on the Windows system registry fields and values.

- Remove the dmd version 1.

- Not allowed to go ahead if nothing is selected.

- Changed default path to "C:\dmd". If previous dmd installation is set to another path, installer uses it instead the default.


It is prepared to be built by the "linux/dmd_win.sh", which is included on "linux/build_all.sh" as well.
