Shortcut Comment
How can I set a comment for the shortcut to a prog in Win XP. I'm not sure whether Win9x supports it.:winamp:

As far as I know you can't which is really annoying as I'd like to the "tooltips" also.

I asked about a year or two ago but never got a response...

This can be done already. It would just require a small change in the NSIS source. CreateShortcut uses IShellLink which has a SetDescription method that actually sets the comment field.

Perhaps we can add this option to NSIS 2.x.

Do Include it in NSIS 2.x series as it will benefit non programmerslike me.:D
