Paul,
As the various programs are being phased over to windows, would it be worth
creating a Windows installer package for each one.
This could create any necessary shortcuts and could have components allowing
installations of for example just the .CTY files or the Rig control files.
I can recommend a simple to use free installer maker called Inno Setup which
will support all this.
Feel free to contact me directly if you would like more details or help in
creating an installer.
