Unprofesional Language in Documentation
Although it did not offend me personally, I am afraid this will cause a detrimental reputation toward NSIS.

In the NSIS manual there is a code example that uses questionable language. This also made it into the documentation included with the NSIS download.

Direct Link to offending area:
4.8.1.17 FileErrorText

Hi, and the link was?

Direct Link to offending area:
URL submitted by user.

when you see the "URL submitted by user" thing, just press the 'quote' button. The URL will be shown properly in the quoted text.

For what it's worth, the text referred to is probably "good luck, b*tch" (sans asterisk) as a 'whimsical' error message in the "FileErrorText" directive.

Animaether is correct on both points. I didn't post the referred text here as this is my first post and was yet uncertain of the offensive language policy on the forum.
