How to make a Zip file on compilation process
I would like to know if there is a simple solution for making a zip file from compilation process of a NSIS project...

Regards

Use !system to call an external EXE to zip the file(s).

The external EXE can be a 3rd party zipping application (like 7-Zip or Info-Zip.

EDITS:
1. Refer to the NSIS help manual for !execute usage
2. You can also use !execute, but for command-line functions, it may be best to use !system. (again, refer to the docs for more info.)
