XML / MergeModules
I want to use NSIS as an installer for MonkeyTerm, but the problem is that MT rely on MSXML3.

MS distribute a .MSM package to ensure correct installation of MSXML. Therefore it would be cool to have a MSM->NSI converter or a special instruction in NSI that handles MSM packages... :cool:


Q: Is there an existing way of handling MSM packages?
Q: Are there any plans to make NSIS handle MSM packages?
Q: Am I the only one interrested in this?

msi2xml
I haven't tried this yet... But i think this tool might be the one to use:
http://www.linkcad.com/index.asp?in=...ml/msi2xml.htm

I think it should work on msm's too...

Then meaybe you could write an xsl to run upon the generated xml and get some nice NSI code instead...

I will look into this if i have time...
