Thinking about re-compile

Hi!

I was thinking to make some changes in Nsis.
For example the "Verify installer: " to spanish. 😁
But, what compiler(s) does the creators recommend
to re-compile Nsis? I try with Dev-C++ but no luck,
to many errors 🧟

PS: Please, other than Visual C++ 😁

MinGW and Borland's compilers worked, but the makefiles are out of date so you'll have to update them. You can also try the compiler that Microsoft are giving for free with the .NET Framework SDK, it should work.

Second hit on Google got me to:
download, software, update, Microsoft, product, computer, PC, Windows, Office, server, MSN, Live, game, Xbox, security, driver, install, trial, preview, demo, popular

I think it'll be easier for you to use Dev-C++... Just configure it to compile with MinGW. As far as I know Dev-C++ is capable of importing VC6 project files. Use this feature and you're set.

No 🙁 . Return many errors in the exehead.

Can't find this files or directories:
#include "exehead/Release-zlib/icon.h"
#include "exehead/Release-zlib/unicon.h"
