WICKS - a Windows Installer for CHDK and SDM - TEST VERSION
WICKS is a Java application designed to install CHDK or SDM on a Windows machine.
It's very similar in features and UI to my SDMInst (Mac OS)
and LICKS (Ubuntu Linux) apps.
So far it has only been tested on Windows XP - please see the Notes below for some caveats.
It requires version 1.4 or later of the Java Runtime.
Note for Windows 7 and Windows 8 Users: under the covers WICKS issues commands and makes API calls that
require administrator privileges under Windows 7 and 8.
If you run WICKS when logged on as a general user, without admin permission, WICKS will diagnose the problem and display
the message:
WICKS needs Administrator permission - start it by double-clicking WIX.CMD
If you see this message, terminate WICKS and double-click the WIX.CMD file. This will display a dialog
allowing you to temporarily 'elevate' yourself to Admin level by selecting a user account with these privileges.
WICKS will then run without problems.
You may find my ACID app useful in identifying and downloading a suitable build.
