As of 0.6.0~pre3, win32-loader checks for README.html when running. If
found, it will:
- Minimize itself.
- Open README.html with the system's default browser.
Asides from the ability to continue installation using it, this makes two
improvements in how README.html itself is handled:
- No ugly DOS window.
- Allows for l10n (if README.$lang.html is found it'll take preference,
where $lang is an iso-639 code).
I think this makes it suitable for being run by autorun.inf directly. See
attached patch.
