Ok, I'll try that first. Export to pixel graphics is not a central 
feature. In fact, I never used it until now :-)

If I got him right, he produced the binaries for the install file he 
posted that way. The result is impressive --- The file installed like a

build script can be modified to do the same trick to geda/gschem...
