Adding additional controls
I just discovered NSIS and really like the minimalist installs it makes. I've built two installers now and think I've got the hang of it.

What I would like to do is add a check box to the installation directory page that allows the user to add, or not, the installed program to the startup group. Can this be done?

This can be easily done with InstallOptions (in your contrib directory).


I checked out the InstallOptions and tried a few things. My question is where in the script do I make the CallInstDLL so that it appears in the Install Directory panel?

It can not appear in the Install Directory panel. It can appear before or after it, or before or after any other page. Have a look at this thread for a good example:
