That sounds like a contradiction to me: "typical Windows user"
and "Uses MLton".. :)
A typical Windows developer will be using MSVC++ anyhow.
And they will be expecting a *binary* package, not source.
Try www.advancedinstaller.com, which I use for Felix,
it can make an MSI package in seconds and is
completely free.
MSVC++ is also available free (though it is a bit
hard to find).
