Should also generalize options so that dimensions used for vnc/nx, and now jpeg for xpra, etc.. are passed generically, without needing to bump the protocol version for changes.
Could also be a bit more clever and auto-select jpeg for certain types of applications: media players, browser?, etc.
At then end of the installation on win6.1:
Create process failed; code 740
This is probably InnoSetup trying to launch the application it has just installed. The "details" on this error are totally unhelpful.
According to the InnoSetup documentation, runasoriginaluser is the default when using postinstall. Why you can install software but not run it is beyond me...
When starting the software, it asks every time Do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer.
Maybe this is the logfile we are trying to open? (it obviously does not tell you anything remotely helpful to diagnose)
We do not want administrator privileges! Just the ability to write to our own configuration/data files!

Or maybe it doesn't run asInvoker unless you tell it to?
Not according to thishttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/195109/running-compiled-python-py2exe-as-administrator-in-vista
The download link for mDNS "Download from apple.com" should popup a browser, but instead you get:
The application was unable to start correctly (0xc00000a5). Click OK to close the application.
This one may be resolved with the manifest above...
According to py2exe tutorial it should just be a case of adding the Microsoft.VC90.CRT directory to the installer, but this does not work for me.
Other posts suggest copying the raw DLLs into the root dist folder (also did not work).
