Which NSIS and which portability are you refering to?
NSIS code is portable as long as Windows is the only target.
AFAIR NSIS IDE isn't portable, but there's a ( NSIS based ) launcher.

portability usaully refers to cross OS capibility yes i know windows has more then one os 95,98,2000,nt,XP,vista etc. but its understoud as windows,linux,mac,bsd,etc
and how would the code be "ported" amoung windows it would be the same code its just capable to run under any version of windows running nt and 9x kernels

NSIS is the preferred language, but Delphi is very visual orientated, so it's easier to create visual things like menus.

"If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate."
It's interpreted into C/C++ so you could say that C/C++ is the preferred language

All I know is that the NSIS code is converted to C/C++.
Take a look at the source for NSIS if you want to find out.

You'd have to get the source for the compiler and find out how each function maps to the native function.

Not so hard.
But NSIS is not good for the first language. I recomend Java or (only because Java is not portable) Delphi / C++.

Buy? What for?

NSIS isn't even a programming language
As such, even in early 70s it'd be considered orthodox.

Sounds interesting, can you tell more?
What happens with this C/C++ code?
Is it interpreted or compiled?
BTW if I wrote a brainfuck to C++ translator, would you use it to write anything useful?

Do you know if there's any way to retrieve this code w/out NSIS source modification?
Or where should I look for it?
