.. of course ... one would be stupid not to notice a dos window
on one's own task bar ... upon the closing of which, one could
rename one's own directory ;-)

Looks very handy for those who may be looking to bundle 
coLinux in a user-digestable format.



   Is it really free of charge, even for commercial use?

   Yes, it may be used completely free of charge, even when 
   deploying commercial applications. However if you wish to
   show your appreciation and support its development you 
   can make a donation.

   (Note: "Completely free of charge" must not be confused 
   with "completely free". Inno Setup is copyrighted software,
   not public domain software. There are some restrictions on
