Its funny, the installer is almost like that. Everything thats not
python is actually in there. (aside from msvc redistributable package)
15 of the 20 mb are dlls from the dependencies.

Honestly, I'm new to this windows installer thing. I have no idea what
the correct answer is. I come from a linux background thinking that
setting the PATH is the greatest thing ever.

Do i install everything in system32 and not even set the paths? Should
there be a batch script installed to the start menu that sets the path
and then executes grc? Some burdens are easier for me to pass unto the
user...

There is always more time if you know where to look. Like sleep, is it
necessary? Some experts say otherwise.
