This command specifies whether the user should be able to skip a file or not. A user has an option to skip a file if SetOverwrite on is used (default) and the installer fails to open a file for writing when trying to extract a file (see File command). If \e{off} is used the ignore button which allows the user to skip the file will not show and the user will only have an option to abort the installation (Cancel button) or retry opening the file for writing (Retry button). If \e{on} is used the user will have an option to skip the file (error flag will be set - see SetOverwrite).

\H{compiling_infos}Compiling NSIS Sources
If you want to compile NSIS by yourself you have to install the Sources. The Sources are shipped with every official \W{http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=22049}{NSIS distribution} as well with the \W{http://nsis.sourceforge.net/nightly/nsis.zip}{nightly} development Snapshots. NSIS is programmed in Microsoft Visual C 6.0. Therefore it contains all necessary files including the Project Files. You can also use the current Version 7.0 of Visual C but the output is a few KB larger. The Sources also include a makefile for the famous Open Source Compiler GCC but unfortunately it is a little bit outdated. If you are working with GCC and want to provide a updated working makefile or your using an other Compiler like Borland C++ Builder or Open Watcom C/C++ and want to provide makefiles or project files please drop a line on the \W{http://forums.winamp.com/forumdisplay.php?forumid=65}{NSIS Forum}.
The NSIS source files are shipped with every official \W{http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=22049}{NSIS distribution} as well with the \W{http://nsis.sourceforge.net/nightly/nsis.zip}{nightly} development snapshots. The binary files distributed with the NSIS releases are compiled with the Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 compiler. The source has also been tested to be compatible with the Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003 compiler. The NSIS distribution includes Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 project files. Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003 automatically converts these files to the Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003 format.
\\<b\\>Note: If your using Visual C 6.0 you have to update the \W{http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/}{Platform SDK} to avoid crashes when using CopyFiles. See \W{http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=131964}{here} for further informations. You should also install the \W{http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/downloads/ppack/default.asp}{Processor Pack} for decreasing the excutable Size.\\</b\\>
Previous versions of NSIS have been tested with with the MinGW compiler, however we don't have an up-to-date makefile. If you are working with GCC or another compiler like Borland C++ Builder or Open Watcom C/C++ and want to provide makefiles or project files please drop a line on the \W{http://forums.winamp.com/forumdisplay.php?forumid=65}{NSIS Forum}.
\\<b\\>Note: If your using Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 you have install the latest \W{http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/}{Platform SDK}. Because of flaws in the lib's distributed with Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0, not installing the Platform SDK will result in crashes when using the CopyFiles command. \W{http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=131964}{Click here} for more information. You should also install the \W{http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/downloads/ppack/default.asp}{Processor Pack} to decrease the size of the installer overhead.\\</b\\>

Like any other program installers made by NSIS return errorlevels as a result of their execution. Very useful if you call an NSIS Installer from within an other installer with \R{execwait}{Execwait}.

In the uninstaller, use \R{unremovesharedll}{un.RemoveSharedDLL} to decrement the shared DLL count, but remove the Delete /REBOOTOK $R1 line, because it's never a good idea to remove the VB runtimes. The system to registering shared DLL files does now always work and many application require these files.
During the uninstallation, use \R{unremovesharedll}{un.RemoveSharedDLL} to decrement the shared DLL count, but remove the Delete /REBOOTOK $R1 line, because the shared DLL registration is not reliable enough for such important system files.
