-;NSIS will be needed to create an installer from this script:
-;http://nsis.sourceforge.net/
+; How to make an installer:
+;   Step 0. If you are a Tor maintainer, make sure that tor.nsi and
+;           src/win32/orconfig.h all have the correct version number.
+;   Step 1. Download and install OpenSSL.
+;   Step 2. Download and install NSIS (http://nsis.sourceforge.net)
+;   Step 3. Make a directory under the main tor directory called "bin".
+;   Step 4. Copy ssleay32.dll and libeay32.dll from OpenSSL into "bin".
+;   Step 5. Run man2html on tor.1.in; call the result tor-reference.html
+;           Run man2html on tor-resolve.1; call the result tor-resolve.html
+;   Step 6. Copy torrc.sample.in to torrc.sample.
+;   Step 7. Build tor.exe; save the result into bin.
+;   Step 8. cd into contrib and run "makensis tor.nsi".
+;
+; Problems:
+;   - Copying torrc.sample.in to torrc.sample and tor.1.in (implicitly)
+;     to tor.1 is a Bad Thing, and leaves us with @autoconf@ vars in the final
+;     result.
+;   - Building Tor requires too much windows C clue.
+;     - We should have actual makefiles for VC that do the right thing.
+;     - We should maybe have project files for VCfoo too.
+;   - It would be nice if version numbers checked themselves.
+;   - I need to learn more NSIS juju to solve these:
+;     - tor-resolve.exe isn't included in the installer. 
+;     - There should be a batteries-included installer that comes with
+;       privoxy too. (Check privoxy license on this; be sure to include
+;       all privoxy documents.)
+;   - The filename should probably have a revision number.
