For example somebody might like to repackage Gramps with their code changes, or favorite addons, or even their own family trees, etc.
==Installation Folder==This distribution is directory based, which means it loads all dependencies from the directory in which they have been installed. So if you want to use it from console/terminal (dos/cmd.exe prompt) you must first go to their directory (GrampsAIO\bin); for example: cd C:\GrampsAIO\bin; python -EO ..\share\gramps\gramps.py -- but the installation may have been put somewhere else and so you should probably first search for the GrampsAIO\bin folder to make sure.
That folder's location depends on whether the person doing theinstallation has administrative rights on the Windows machine. Ifan administrator installs it the directory may be chosen, with thedefault suggestion being %ProgramFiles%\GrampsAIO (for example C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO). If a non-administrator installs it, it will be placed in the user's personal tree, in %APPDATA%\GrampsAIO(for example C:\Documents and Settings\Jones\Application Data\GrampsAIO). So if you want to use it from the console/terminal (dos/cmd.exe prompt) you must first go to the directory where those dependencies were installed (GrampsAIO\bin); for example:<code> cd C:\GrampsAIO\bin; python -EO ..\share\gramps\gramps.py</code>(but the installation may have been put somewhere else and so you should probably first search for the GrampsAIO\bin folder to make sure). ==Why:GrampsAIO was made==
* easy installation:
** no searching web for appropriate packages
** on upgrade of a library all other libraries are rebuilt with that version
==How:GrampsAIO was made==
* put all software Gramps needs in one package:
# all core non-python library and applications
