Compiling in Command Prompt

Hi,

Iam having some trouble compiling in the WinXP Command Prompt. I want to compile a script that is located in a folder in C:\Program Files\tempscript\

now when i go to compile it through the use of makensis in the command prompt i have errors.

i try:

makensis C:\Program Files\tempscript\basicscript.nsi

i get an error saying "cannot compile script C:\Program

If anyone could help me then that would be great,

thanks!

Put quotes around the filename and path

makensis "C:\Program Files\tempscript\basicscript.nsi"

This is a Windows thing.

ah thought that might of been the case. Normally i rarely ever use quotes when using the command prompt.

Thanks for the help!
