SGUIL Win32 Installer

Michael Boman created a SGUIL Client 0.5.2 Win32 Installer using NullSoft’s Installer System, which, for instance, Snort for Win32 uses. Michael was looking for feedback so I downloaded the installer, checked the md5sum (I use md5sum.exe on Windows), and started the install. Less than a minute later, I had Sguil installed. The install places a “SGUIL Client” icon on the desktop and menu items Start->Programs->SGUIL Client->{SGUIL Client, uninstall, website}. In order to make changes to the sguil.conf file you have to navigate to the C:\Program Files\SGUIL Client\ directory. I made two suggestions to Michael: adding the TLS OpenSSL extension to Tcl library and having the sguil.conf file editable under Start->Programs->SGUIL Client->(wordpad.exe+sguil.conf) or something similar rather than making the user navigate to C:\Program Files\SGUIL Client in order to make a configuration change.
