[wpkg-users] Now that we have WPKG 1.3.1... more ''standard'' variable definition?

[Marco Gaiarin]

Ok, now we have WPKG 1.3.1, that have the nice feature of be able to
define variables in config.xml.

We are used to use in recipe variable like %SOFTWARE%, and we know that
is merely a convention, but is a useful convention in wiki recipes.

Can be define some more ''convention''? On config.xml examples there's
two examples:

	<variable name="DESKTOP" value="%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Desktop" os="windows xp" />
	<variable name="DESKTOP" value="%PUBLIC%\Desktop" os="windows 7" />

%DESKTOP% is a possibly confusing variable... better to use %ALLUSERSDESKTOP%
or %PUBLICDESKTOP%?
Someone have just maked some more pecise os detection? AFAIK
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Desktop is for XP an before, while %PUBLIC%\Desktop
work for vista and successor. I don't know for server OSes...


	<variable name="PROG_FILES32" value="%PROGRAMFILES%\SomeSoftware" architecture="x86" />
	<variable name="PROG_FILES32" value="%PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\SomeSoftware" architecture="x64" />

This is clearly an example. I propose:

	<variable name="ProgramFiles32" value="%ProgramFiles%" architecture="x86" />
	<variable name="ProgramFiles32" value="%ProgramFiles(x86)%" architecture="x64" />


Thanks.
