Build Information:
N/A
--
If, on a 32-bit Windows machine, you try to download and install the 64-bit
version of Wireshark, the message that is reported by the installer is

    This version of Wireshark only runs on x64 machines.\nTry installing the
32-bit version instead.

complete with the "\n", exactly like that.

That comes from the NSIS file:

    MessageBox MB_OK "This version of Wireshark only runs on x64 machines.\nTry
installing the 32-bit version instead." /SD IDOK

Perhaps NSIS doesn't handle C escapes in strings, so that if the message should
be on two separate lines, something else needs to be done.
