remove binaries from source code #61

Closed pelim closed 10 years ago

pelim commented 10 years ago

os dependent binaries should be removed from source code and must be listed as requirement - later include the os binaries in os dependent installer

Hej Pelim, Thanks for taking the time to submit an issue. I really appreciate it. I included the binaries because I want the setup procedure to be as simple as possible. If someone does not need the binaries they can simply delete them of course. Could you give me a reason why this is bad practice other then the project increasing in filesize?

Thanks again!

Due to too evasive tweaks I had to pull of for Linux I decided to remove the binaries from the main app and place them (only for Windows) in a separate repo. I've expanded the setup readme for Linux based system so they can easily install all dependencies.

Thanks again.
