It's verry easy to hack something yourself: untar the file and have a look
at directories you don't think they belong to the tool. Have a look, they
are scripts and textfiles which contain information what to do. It is verry
easy to write a script (if you need it) for installation. The only question
is if your script is complete. The origional should run in GOD mode (root)
so yours must do so if other users need to use the commands you install.
