[M3devel] cminstall vs. size of distribution

[j k]

I don't see my earlier mail yet, but this is trivial to find out, what the 
cost of the almost do-nothing installer is on Windows:

min.tgz 4.6 meg
that is system.tgz + tar/gzip/cygwin.dll/cminstall

system.tgz which is really all you need 3.5meg

system.tar.bz2 2.9 meg

system.zip 3.6 meg
making a .zip self extracting adds about 130k.

Does a megabyte matter these days?
