No, it's not InstallShield. I was searching for something free and clean,
and found free-extractor (freeextractor.sf.net).
After the wizard a samll C program sets up monobasepath.bat and copies
winwrapper to the windows directory.

So it's enough to set the PATH to the dir with binaries and the dir with
libraries.
You still need to create a batch file to execute "mono mcs.exe".
