Seems the script wasn't allowed here after all. I dropped i<3cabbages a note on his blog seeing if he's interested in making use of it.
For most of the folks reading this, you're right; it's *not* that hard. When I write code, I don't write it for people who can write their own code; I write it for people like my girlfriend, my mom, or my 12 year old son who could certainly benefit from using such a tool legitimately (say, to buy an ePub file, and put it on an iPad) but wouldn't possibly know where to start.
For this reason, I intentionally left the script without the option to change directories, or deselect packages, to make it 'grandma proof.' That said, it launches the individual Python, PyCrpypto, and ADR installers; you can always cancel those installers individually when they launch and still have the program successfully install.
Some folks might find it useful, others won't need it. Such is digital life.
