I'm trying to think out the best way to add a user registration dialog to NSIS. Two methods come to mind. First just add it to the exehead as a dialog like the licence dialog. Another would be to write a small EXE that I call. The registration dialog would just write out an entry to the registry that keeps their username and userkey.

I'm not sure which direction would be best.

Any comments. Looking for ideas before I jump into coding.

More thoughts
After some more thinking I decided that I'll just build an external EXE that does the registration. Silly to fork the main code and this lets me call the registration dialog later from the app if I want to allow an evaluation period.
