-<!-- id:468 -->The Collector is a facility that helps you create new collections, modify or add to existing ones, or delete collections. To do this you will be guided through a sequence of web pages which request the information that is needed. The sequence is self-explanatory: this section takes you through it. As an alternative to using the Collector, you can also build collections from the [[en:command_line_building|command line]]. The Collector predates the librarian interface, and for most practical purposes the [[en:building_collections#Greenstone Librarian Interface|librarian interface (GLI)]] should be used instead of the Collector.+<!-- id:468 -->The Collector is a facility that helps you create new collections, modify or add to existing ones, or delete collections.

 <!-- id:561 -->The immense variety of different possible Windows configurations has made it difficult for us to test and debug the Greenstone installer under all possible conditions. Although the installer produces CD-ROMs that operate on most Windows systems, it is still under development. If you experience problems and you possess a commercial installation package (e.g. InstallShield), you can use it to create CD-ROMs from the information that Greenstone provides. The above-mentioned export directory contains four files that relate to the installation process, and three subdirectories that contain the complete collection and software. Remove the four files and use InstallShield to make a CD-ROM image that installs these directories and creates a shortcut to the program //gsdl\server.exe//. <!-- id:561 -->The immense variety of different possible Windows configurations has made it difficult for us to test and debug the Greenstone installer under all possible conditions.
