== Installing the Cartographer GUI Using the Windows Graphical Installer ==

Double-clicking on the instal ''exe'' starts the installer.  Prior to displaying the Welcome Screen, the installer first checks to see if Java is installed.  If it is, the installer jumps right to the Welcome Screen.  If not, a confirmation dialog is presented.

Click ''Yes'' to continue or ''No'' to exit the installer.  Without Java, the Cartographer GUI will not run but you can certainly continue and add Java later. Once this hurdle is complete, the Welcome Screen will be displayed.

After selecting the location, the installer unpacks its files and places them in the install directory. If it too quickly scrolls through the list, then congratulations -- you have a fast computer!

The installer then writes various registry entries identifying the software, version, publisher, and publisher website then asks the user to click ''Next'' to continue.

Finally, the installer is finished and wants to let you know what a great job it did automating the install process and reducing IQ required, to be a systems administrator, to that of a monkey.  Click ''Finish'' to get rid of this last dialog and get on with your life.
