Make calibre installer for Window
Hi.
I recently modified calibre source for my needs. Now I need to make installer and binaries for that. I could not find Readme for doing that. I just know there is folder windows installer for exact the same reason.
Please, guide me how to achieve this.
thanks

Building calibre was too hard task with all its dependencies. So I decided to cut path.
What did just executed for all my modified files "python -O -m " to make pyo files
Then disabled pylib.zip read-only from properties so that i could cahnge
Then with the help of winrar changed files with mine inside pylib.zip

Do not know if it has side effects. But it seems working

So it is like setting development for calibre. just modified codes were injected to real calibre at the end.
Next would be to create installer from modified calibre files. for example using innosetup or other installers.
