  Description     : Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (modified for debian)

An installer is the first experience of a user with your
application. Slow or unsuccessful software installations are the most
irritating computer problems. A quick and user friendly installer is
therefore an essential part of your software product.

NSIS is a tool that allows programmers to create such installers for
Windows. It is released under an open source license and is completely
free for any use.

NSIS creates installers that are capable of installing, uninstalling,
setting system settings, extracting files, etc. Because it's based on
script files, you can fully control every part of your installers. The
script language support variables, functions, string manipulation,
just like a normal programming language - but designed for the creation
of installers. Even with all these features, NSIS is still the smallest
installer system available. With the default options, it has an overhead
of only 34 KB.
