Nullsoft Install System

[SimonSez07]

i have a question about creating nullsoft install scripts that i posted in the general discussion forum:

http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=22227

but nobody over there had any solution except that someone said i should ask koepi in this forum.

so if u could help at all, that would be great ...

thanks

Use the search button please.

I posted the script some weeks ago, you can download it here... must be some pages back though.
(try "NSIS install script" as search expressions)

This is the portion i use for my script.. I have teh Win2000 / 98 detection done in a different portion of the script.. if you wish to see that portion or would rather use the function in the functions.htm for finding os version and working off that is no problem..
