Hi,

I could use someone testing a dummy version of a greek nsis installer. 
It'd be useful to have that so that we can see if we have charset problems.

Hey to brave Kostas for having that file localized, that helps a quite a 
bit. Esp since greek seems to be one of the real trick questions [1].

The installer is at

http://people.mozilla.com/~axel/firefox-2.0a3.el.win32.installer-nsis.exe

Note, this is a personal build, it contains traces of nuts, please don't 
use this build for anything but testing the installer.

I'm esp curious to see reports on this on a greek version of windows, 
and to see comparisons in terms of charset issues to the 1.5 installer 
on as many versions of windows as possible.

I have tested both the 1.5.0.4 and my test, the 1.5.0.4 displays 
garbage, the nsis one has empty screens.

I'll look at testing the polish version tomorrow, as that has its 
charset specified in the nsis source, in contrary to the greek one. 
Sadly our polish localization is a tad on crack, I need to fix that, 
which I don't do tonight.

Thanks

Axel

[1] NSIS 2.17 Greek.nlf doesn't specify a charset, which I think means 
CP1252, but uses CP1253, just as our locale needs. I'll try a patched 
version of NSIS tomorrow, too.
