Ok, good, I understand.

In fact, there is a difference now:

  C:\home\trikalio\o65test>\Programme\cc65\bin\ca65.exe *.a65
  ca65.exe: Don't know what to do with `1571.a65'

  C:\home\trikalio\o65test>\Programme\cc65-old\bin\ca65.exe *.a65
  Fatal error: Cannot open input file `*.a65': No such file or directory

  C:\home\trikalio\o65test>

Thus, the expansion of wildcards works now (no, I did not expect the
command-line to work at all).

What exactly is the installer supposed to do? I just tested it on a
plain XP SP 2 in the following way:

- downloaded cc65-snapshot-win32-2.10.5.20050329-1.zip and unzipped it
  into a directory
- double-clicked on install.vbs; the installer installed the files into
  c:\programme\cc65
- No PATHs were added, and no other environment variables were
  set.
- Anyway, Start/Programs/cc65 exists with 3 entries: cc65 Announcement,
  cc65 documentation (which does not work), and "remove cc65".
- removing using "remove cc65" seemed to work.

Anyway, I do not see any sense in this installation. What do I gain in
contrast to just unpacking everything in a directory?

Regards,
   Spiro.
