variable in dos
Hi,
Is there any way to make a viariable of NSIS also work in a dos command line. Here is an example of my issue.
____________________________________________________________
ShowInstDetails show
Name "xxxxxxxxxx"
OutFile "xxxxxxxxxx"
XPStyle on
;---- Initialen wegschrijven ----
!include "dialogs.nsh"
Function .onInit
# Params:
# 1) Title: "xxxxx"
# 2) Caption: none
# 3) InitText: (enter owner code)
# 4) Max: 3
# 5) Button1: default
# 6) Button2: default
# 7) Return: $0
${InputTextBox} "xxxxx" "Please, enter xxx " "" "2" "" "" 1
FunctionEnd
Section
# See if the user inputs something:
${if} $1 == "${NULL}"
DetailPrint "Operation was canceled!"
${else}
FileOpen $0 c:\temp.txt "a"
FileSeek $0 0 END
FileWrite $0 "$1"
FileClose $0
${endif}
SectionEnd
wath I want now is, run a command line where can use the variable $1. For example: alter.exe file.txt "xxx" "$1"
This means I search in the file.txt for the word "xxx" and i will replace is with the value of variable "$1"

There are functions in the NSIS Wiki to replace text in a file:
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/wiki/Cat...tion_Functions
To run programs, use Exec, ExecWait or nsExec::Exec (which hides the window too).
