Catching output from external scripts

[kimwalden]

I need to execute various Python-scripts from within the sections of NSIS and be able to catch the output that would normally be printed in a separate DOS-window and instead have it printed (line by line as the external script executes) in a window internal to an NSIS page, so the whole thing looks like one application.

Is this simple to do (or even feasible) with NSIS?

Grateful for any tip, even a negative one, in which case I don't have to spend too much time looking for a solution that may not exist.

Best regards,

Take a look here or perform a forum search with your query.
EDIT:
Also there is the specific NsPython plug-in. Just found it at wiki :-)
