Is it Possible....?

I have a wise installer script i have been using for years, but now i have decided to use NSIS as my installer of choice due to its versatility and ease of use.
I was wondering if there were a tool, plugin or something along those lines that could convert a .wse (wise script file (Which is just a plain text file)) into .nsi
I am hoping and praying that there is because i do not want to re-interpret 4800 lines of installer script into nsis if i dont have to.

Thank you,
Keith

I don't know if it's possible, I know it would be great if it was, but take this as an oportunitiy to read the whole nsis help file for free!

ok, seriously, it's nice to learn nsis, instead of having automatically the script made for you. You will discover many things you can do with nsis.

[edit] I just realised that I've been using nsis for more than 5 years....

thank you for your quick response.
I suppose i'll do a complete rewrite.. blah. at least the script will be around 1/2 the size of the original

thanks,
Keith
