Creating a custom package installer?


Dear all,

I have a question. Im on a project which involves LipSync on 
Linux. Now, in the final phase, we're porting it to Windows. We're curious 
to know how to create binary packages like tar.bz2 files. I took the 
URL:http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptII2.0/cygwin.htm
and used 
http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptII2.0/cygwinBasic.exe
This file unzipped to a setup.exe file
packages\setup.ini - which contains hints and is auto-gen
packages\releases\{package}\{package}.tar.bz2 - package files

Now for our project, if we need say, bash, less, and some more utils and 
my own package, how can we make setup see those files? Could you point me 
to some tutorial? http://cygwin.com/setup.html isnt clear in a step by 
step fashion.

Thanks in advance 

PS: If its been asked in the past,excuse my ignorance but please point me 
to the link.
