This is a silent installer and uninstaller for Audacity, a free software audio editor available from http://audacity.sourceforge.net/. Audacity is free software and cross-platform.
The 1.2 series is very old, having received minor updates over the years. The 1.3 series has for a very long time been in development with only a beta version available. However the authors say of the 1.3 Beta "This is our active version with the latest features and fixes. We recommend this version for more advanced users, and for everyone on Windows 7, Windows Vista". As an example of the move to version 1.3, Ubuntu ships 1.3 rather than 1.2.
Packaging For Audacity 1.2 series
Audacity uses Inno Setup.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<packages>
<package
id="audacity"
name="Audacity"
revision="2"
reboot="false"
priority="0">
<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Audacity 1.2.6" />
<install cmd='%SOFTWARE%\audacity\audacity-win-1.2.6.exe /sp- /silent /norestart' />
<remove cmd='%PROGRAMFILES%\Audacity\unins000.exe /silent' />
</package>
</packages>
Including LAME
If you want to use the LAME encoder (for MP3), copy lame-3.96.1 to %SOFTWARE%\audacity\ and add the following after the Audacity installer has run:
<install cmd='cmd /C xcopy "%SOFTWARE%\audacity\lame-3.96.1" "%PROGRAMFILES%\Audacity\lame-3.96.1\" /S /E /Y /Q' />
<upgrade cmd='cmd /C xcopy "%SOFTWARE%\audacity\lame-3.96.1" "%PROGRAMFILES%\Audacity\lame-3.96.1\" /S /E /Y /Q' />
