PiMP is gone?
I just noticed that PiMP is no longer on the winamp developer site. Only NSIS...

When you go to the old URL http://www.winamp.com/nsdn/pimp/ you still get a message, but the links in the menu are gone. Anyone know why? I don't feel like having to explain NSIS to everyone who wants to submit a plug-in, and I don't think you guys do either :p.

Isn't NSIS the descendent of PiMP? Aren't they pretty much the same?

Anyway, I found it pretty easy to use, just modify the example.

Yeah of course, but I think PiMP was still easier. I have no troubles with NSIS either (in fact I need it), but some people might.

Anyway I was telling people to "use PiMP or NSIS" up to this point, so it's good to know it isn't there anymore.

Also select compiler type to 'makensis-bz2.exe' and you will get more compression ost likely as AVS is mostly text.

Help it helps folks.
