+MakeNSISW - MakeNSIS Windows Wrapper
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+
+About MakeNSISW
+---------------
+MakeNSISW is a wrapper for the MakeNSIS that is distributed with
+NSIS (http://www.nullsoft.com/free/nsis/).  MakeNSISW allows you 
+to compile NSIS scripts using a Windows GUI interface.  To install
+MakeNSISW, compile the source using Visual C++ or Mingw.
+
+
+Requirements
+------------
+MakeNSISW requires NSIS be installed on your system.  The default 
+directory for this installation is $PROGRAMFILES\NSIS\Contrib\MakeNSISW.
+
+
+Usage:
+------
+If you installed the Shell Extensions option during the installation, then
+all that is required is that you choose 'Compile NSI' from the right-
+click menu on a NSIS script.  This will invoke MakeNSISW.
+
+The format of the parameters when calling MakeNSISW from the commandline is:
+  makensisw full_path_of_makensis.exe [options] [script.nsi | - [...]]
+
+Where full_path_of_makensis.exe is the full name including the path of the 
+compiler.  For the options, please see the MakeNSIS documentation.
+
+
+Shortcut Keys
+-------------
+Ctrl+R: Recompiles the script
+Ctrl+X: Exits the application
+Ctrl+T: Tests the installer
+Ctrl+E: Edits the script
+
