Thanks a lot Austin for your -as usuals- invaluable participation!
However not sure I'm nitpicking here, but please consider that wrapping the bot files into an .exe installer won't please the Linux users. Why not rather make a standalone installer executable that will be extracted with the rest of the files in the podbot archive, and then let the user click on it once he has extracted the archive ?
The same installer code could perhaps be ported to Linux as well.
Anyhow, I'm impatient to see what you can come up with!
