String replace

I'm working with some config files, and they use the install dir. Though the program needs double slashes in the config file. So I need to edit a string so it has double slashes

I couldn't find a function for doing this, any tips on how to solve this issue

Might be

${WordReplace} "$INSTDIR" "\" "\\" + $R0
That gave me a big fat error though =/

Invalid command: ${WordReplace}

See the bit at the top:
Usage in script:
1. !include "WordFunc.nsh"
2. !insertmacro WordFunction
I think you missed number 2.

looks like it. Added it, but now it throws a new error at me :S


!include: closed: "C:\Program Files\NSIS\Include\WordFunc.nsh"
!macro "WordFunction": unterminated (no !macroend found in file)!

It's the first time I have a try at making an installer, so bear with my stupidity
