                      Some defines are true/false values.  These are considered true if the value is defined, and false otherwise.

                      <b>NSIS Syntax Highlighting</b><br>
                      <br>
                      The ExperienceUI SDK Documentation also uses syntax highlighting for various NSIS commands and parameters.  Here's how it works:<br>
                      <br>
                      <font face="Courier New" style=font-size:8pt>
                        <font color=#0000FF><b>NSISCommand</b></font> <font color=#FF8040>/NSIS /Parameter</font> NSIS_String_Not_Quoted <font color=#008080>"NSIS String in quotes <font color=#800000><i>$WITH_VAR</i></font>"</font><br>
                        <font color=#008040>!directive </font>XPUI_DEFINE_SYMBOL <font color=#008080>"XPUI Define Value"</font>
                      </font><br>
		      <br>
                      
                    </font>
                  </p>
		  
		  <h1>Inserting Commands</h1>
		  
		    <p style=margin-left:0.2in>
		    
		      <font face=Verdana style=font-size:8pt>
		      
		        In the ExperienceUI, all has a set order and organization.  The method for inserting commands and setting settings has been fine-tuned for the best
			possible performance and the easiest possible setting of settings.<br>
			<br>
			To insert ExperienceUI-related macros, you must include the XPUI.nsh file before the point in the script where the macro is inserted.  If you fail to do
			this, the NSIS compiler will halt.<br>
			<br>
			If you want custom GUI settings, you must define them before inserting the first language into your script.<br>
			<br>
			To change strings for any given language, you will need to define the string in the language you want it in, and then insert the associated 
			XPUI_LANGUAGE macro.<br>
			<br>
                        To change the UI that is used, you must define XPUI_UI, XPUI_UI_IDDINST, XPUI_UI_BOTTOMIMAGE, or XPUI_WANSIS_UI <b>before</b> including XPUI.nsh.  This is because some of the branding image controls are referenced in every page, and MakeNSIS requires that these controls be present in the current UI file.
