I added a summary page at the beginning as you want it. So please give
it a try and PLEASE report me if acroread was found (I need feedback if
the pdf stuff is now correct). The actual version is here:
OK.
I changed the filenames as you wnated and tried to make my script as
similar to the lasest CVS version. The diff is attached and at my script
webpage.
Good man!
Btw. please don't deform my code as you for example did in
lyx_utils.nsh. I don't like meaningless variable names like "$0" as it
makes it difficult for me, others and yourself (e.g. if you haven't had
a look at the code for half a year).
Shrug. Your code caused the compiler to emit a couple of warnings, so I
silenced it. One way of achieving transparency is:
!macro FooBarBody Var1 Var2 Var3
; insert code to use Var1 Var2 Var3 here
!macroend
Function FooBar
Exch $0
Exch
Exch $1
Exch 2
Exch $2
!insertmacro FooBarBody $0 S1 S2
Exch $2
Exch
Exch $1
Exch 2
Exch $0
!FunctionEnd
But basically, NSIS is a language to hide meaning, not make your intent
clear :-(
NOTE I updated the languages files as follows:
- The Program description doesn't contain the webadress as this is
unneccesary (we have the download option for this) and often leads to
very long strings (they are then cutted in the installer which looks ugly).
- I translated the latest error string "CreateCmdFilesFailed" in german.nsh
- I changed the summary description "SummaryPathPrefix" in english.nsh
and german.nsh to make it clearer as not everybody knows what to do with
an information about lyxrc.default.
NOTE My installer version supports also the swedish language, please
also add this to your version too.
??? How peculiar. I thought it already had it... Yes, it does.
Then, the only remaining difference is how we deal with
MinSYS,Python,Perl, right?
Yup. But as understand it you also don't like the way of my font
installation.
No, I think that your font stuff is excellent.
I mean the first impression of a program is important, not too much
but enough to be not decided by only two persons.
Agreed. but having two development trees is just confusing us both.
Let's merge it all into a single set of sources and move forward.
Also my opinion. The problem was that I changed too much in a relative
short time ;-)
:-)
Consistency. (Yes, I'm a PITA sometimes ;-))
Hä? What is a PITA?
Pain In The Ass; Schmerz im Arsch.

I also prefer this option. Angus' version could be the one for advanced
users and my for average user.
Angus, is this an option also for you?
I'm going to post a minimal, does nothing, installer to show you what I
think we should have.
