Why Don't The Examples Work?
I'm following the examples at:
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/
ie: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Search_for_text_in_file

And they don't even work when I compile them.

Section
        Push $DESKTOP\MyFile.txt
        Push hello
         Call FileSearch
        Pop $0 #Number of times found throughout
        Pop $1 #Number of lines found on
         
        StrCmp $0 0 +2
        MessageBox MB_OK "$\"hello$\" was found in the file $0 times on $1 lines."
SectionEnd

Error: resolving install function "FileSearch" in unnamed install section (0)
Note: uninstall functions must begin with "un.", and install functions must not
Error - aborting creation process

Am I missing something? I've installed NSIS.

Have you tried including the file that contains FileSearch?

...or copying the function into your script?
