Personalizing Celestia

I've added a number of "solar" systems to my Celestia and am living in them in preparation for writing a series of fictional stories.
I want to offer a version of Celestia, as a download, with the systems already there (eliminate the need for folks to DL Celestia then add files). Is there instruction anywhere on doing this? I have some programming background but I'm certainly no whiz...

Remember that Celestia is a multi-platform program. This means that you'll need to provide it for at least Windows, MacOS and Linux. The same Addon format works for all of them. If you provide just the Addon, then people can download the version of Celestia that's appropriate for the system they have and you don't have to worry about maintaining all those different versions.

Thanks for the clarification. Whew! Trying to simplify it for others will complexifiy it for me, eh?
