I've searched a little bit through the wingrass-nsis-code.
getting the short name of the installation path is already there:
(https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/branches/develbranch_6/mswindows
/GRASS-Installer.nsi#L804)
{{{
;Get the short form of the install path (to allow for paths with spaces)
VAR /GLOBAL INST_DIR_SHORT
GetFullPathName /SHORT $INST_DIR_SHORT $INSTALL_DIR
}}}
so maybe this can be used? where could this be included and as which
variable?
Helmut
p.s. noted that this is a statical approach, but at the moment it's a
chance to test g.extension in wingrass. later on - after testing
g.extension - it could be changed into a dynamically approach as described
