The AWinstall project can contain an unlimited number of tasks: individual named groups of installer actions. You can assign a name and description to each task to clarify its purposes. Each task can consist of a large number of installation actions: extract files, run programs, create shortcuts etc. In other words, action is a minimal installer primitive executing within specified task.
For comfortable navigation within project tree, these actions are grouped by category and target folder. In the above example, task "Install Dictionary" contains two actions: "Extract file" and "Register COM server". You can make some tasks visible to customers (allowing to select only desired install options). During setup process, only selected tasks will be performed.
