Creating release files
----------------------
release. If you have legitimate modifications in the tree that need
to be in the release, commit them first.
+To generate the windows installer (.exe) and the documentation files (chm and htb formats)
+run:
+
+build\tools\bld_chm_exe.bat
+
+which depends on the wxwidgets.iss file, and generates output in the %DAILY% directory. It
+assumes a clean copy of the wxWidgets source tree in %INNO%. Temporary files will be generated
+in the tree from which the batch file is run. It depends on doxygen, a number of gnu
+win32 tools and Microsofts htmlhelp compiler. The wxwidgets.iss file should not need
+editing, but you will want to check that the bld_chm_exe.bat has the correct version number.
