I've had this idea: since the JEDI-SDL package is growing bigger and bigger, with demo, example, etc etc, why not create a "mini" version?
This version should have ONLY the bindings.
It would be useful for releasing with the games or when you don't want to download various MB of stuff (at work)

On the JEDI-SDL mailing list, we are discussing this possiblity. On Windows we could probably use Inno Setup as it is free.
I would also like to have SourceForge create nightly builds. Anyone know how?

Not sure why this is needed :?
All that would improve it is just a download with the pas units and maybe the dlls. This would be a less that 2MB download and enough for someone who already knows how to use the libraries. Why have an install? Its just a copy into directories and set the tool library link. A better method is just to include a clear readme.

Hmm... well if the installer configures Delphi/Kylix/Lazarus/FPC for you that might be handy...
Being able to pick and choose from the demos that you include might be good for some.
Not a bad idea...
