Some NSIS help![]() Submitted by TaffinFoxcroft on April 29, 2008 - 4:47am
since I haven't done NSIS in some time now, i was wondering which app launcher should i base a Nethack portable launcher off. it leaves a reg key, and has some setting files that need to be in the Nethack app directory for nethack to read them. any ideas? ( categories: )

7Zip Portable Launcher

That is...
Yes, use the 7-zip Portable launcher as an example for branches like HKCU, but for the HKLM branch, to write, you need special administrator priveledges. If you have a key(s) in HKLM, the Eraser Portable launcher is a better example.
If you use the 7-zip method on HKLM keys your launcher will not work on accounts with lowered priveledges.

the reg key is saved in
the reg key is saved in HKCU, but the 7zip portable launcher doesn't have a need to move any files, but nethack has some config files.

In that case
you'll want to integrate the Sumatra PDF launcher w/ the 7z launcher.

Just one more thing: in
Just one more thing: in order to move the save games, I need to move *.NetHack-save-game to the data directory, but NSIS doesn;t want to move with a wildcard. any ideas?

Rename?
Why not use renaming as it's build-in to Windows, and doesn't require you to delete the file either...
It's kinda sad when my desktop is messier than my room.
thanks for that. NetHack
