All you need to do to create your own setup is to take the files
from the setup example, edit the configuration file "InstallConfig.txt",
put your own installation files in the "data"
directory and then run MAKEFILE.BAT.
All files except "PreFinish.txt", "PostFinish.txt"
and "SystemFiles.txt" from the data directory can be
renamed. The minisetup program will search for certain scan
marks within itself, therefore the first line of the mandatory
config file must never change.

When you run a complete setup created with MiniSetup, the
minisetup executable at the beginning of that file will search
for the installation configuration "InstallConfig.txt"
and a self extracting unpacker within itself. Only when these
files are found, the setup dialog will open using the
information from the install configuration. When the
"Install" button is pushed, the self extracting
unpacker with the installation archive is copied to a temporary
executable file. Minisetup then runs this file to unpack the
installation.
