I'm working on a custom NSIS template where I wish to accumulate a set
of NSIS commands in a list and then insert those commands into the
template file using a variable.
I'm able to get the variable substituted, but unfortunately, the list
is getting inserted as a single line with semicolons inserted between
the list elements. I need to have this inserted as a series of lines
rather than a single line. Is there someway to control this
substitution?
Or as an alternative, is it possible to convert a list of strings into
a single string with inserted newlines?
string(REPLACE ";" "\n" MY_OUTPUT "${MY_INPUT}") might work.
If the input uses semicolons for something other than list item
separation it might be easier to not set up the content as a list at all.
Otherwise those semicolons might have to be escaped and you might have
to use REGEX REPLACE instead of REPLACE so that it only replaces
unescaped semicolons.
