<h3>Installation</h3>
-<p>The installation script is now named <tt>install-tl</tt> (that's
-<tt>install-tl.bat</tt> on Windows), and it has both GUI (default on
-Windows) and text (default on everything else) operation modes. You can
-force one or the other with the options <tt>-gui</tt> and
-<tt>-no-gui</tt>, respectively.
+<p>The installation script is named <tt>install-tl</tt>
+(<tt>install-tl.bat</tt> on Windows), and it has three operation modes:
-<p>Post-installation package updates and other configurations are now
+<dl>
+<dt><b>wizard</b></dt> (default on Windows) which asks a bare minimum of questions
+and installs everything. Can be specified explicitly with
+<tt>install-tl&nbsp;--gui=wizard</tt>.<p>
+
+<dt><b>text</b></dt> (default on everything else) which has full customizatio
+options. Can be specified explicitly with
+<tt>install-tl&nbsp;--gui=text</tt>.<p>
+
+<dt><b>perltk</b></dt> which is a GUI for text; especially useful for knowledgeable
+Windows users who don't want the defaults. Can be specified explicitly with
+<tt>install-tl&nbsp;--gui=text</tt>, or by running
+<tt>install-tl-advanced.bat</tt> on Windows.
+
+</dl>
+
+<p>Post-installation package updates and other configurations are
performed with the <tt>tlmgr</tt> (TeX Live Package Manager) script,
which likewise has both GUI and text modes.
