Setup process for running the embedded exe
To run Panel Browser as an embedded Exe, select "Use executable file distribution format" from the setup function of Panel Editor and run the setup process. This will output an executable file (embedded Exe file) that incorporates Panel Browser itself, the client configuration file, and all the files referenced by the client configuration file.
This Exe file contains the Panel Browser main body as well as a set of data necessary to display the client screen.
The following is an overview of the files output by the setup function.
