Changing Readme.txt without rebuilding script
OK, I know this is not preferred way of doing, but my prob is following:

Let's say that we publish version x to VeryImportantCustomer UnLtd. We (naturally) forget about them and continue developing, and new versions emerge. After some time, they are satisfied with version they have, and they want EXACTLY that version to be THEIR version. We need to change something in the Readme.txt, and give them that version again. Is it possible without reversing to previous version of complete project in SourceSafe, recompiling whole project and finally rebuilding the NSIS script?
How to change one sentence in Readme.txt in already compiled installation?

Best regards,

You can wrap the current installer in another instsaller that will call the original installer and then change the readme file.
