[PATCH] Preserving file attributes
Hi

I have created a small patch for preserving file attributes. The patch is against 1.96. The new syntax of the FILE command is:

[/a]([/r] filespec [...]|/oname=outfile one_file_only)

It preserves original attributes for both directories and files. I am not Windows man, so I do not know if preserving the original attributes could lead to problems if something like the compression attribute is set.

Anyway, comments are welcome.

Please apply.

Thanks
Lars Munch

Right forum?
I was just wondering if this is right forum to post patches for NSIS, since I did not recieve any feedback on the patch.

This is the right place. However, Justin has been MIA for a while. I'm sure when he gets back he will take a look.
