Integrated ReadMe
Is there an example of integrating a ReadMe into NSIS for Modern UI? Here's what I have in mind:

If the user checks 'View Readme', I'd like to go a new page which displays the ReadMe in the NSIS window similarly as it does for the License. I'm trying keep the install in one place. I tried for a while to add a page like was done for the License display and have it load my Readme.rtf instead - but I have not had much (ok, no) success.

Thanks for any tips and advice!

Grab the latest development snapshot and use Modern UI 1.66.

You can add another license page to show a readme (customize the texts). Let the Modern UI Finish page call a function when 'Show Readme' has been checked and set a variable. When the variable has not been set, abort from the pre function (custom function) of the reamde page.

Thank you so much. I suspected there was an easy method, but I sure I didn't expect to see a reply in less than 20 minutes. Awesome!

Thank you again!
