Size of the installation file

An idea, really low priority. The PWP installation .msi file is some 160 MB. The PWP executable is some 5. The decompressed help .chm file is almost 80 MB - and that's actually great as normally it is the life-saver, especially if one is off line. From the installed PWP, there is even a possibility of crating a portable version of it (Help/Create Portable Version).

I was thinking though, that perhaps it would be useful to have a 'lean PWP' download, that would eschew all the extras and help and, portable or not, be as small as possible?

I would prefer not to complicate the process of issuing new releases at this point. If the frequency ever drops to once a month or less, I might consider it.
