I'd *really* rather not change the paths to something that (still) isn't the same on all platforms, it's already subtle enough not to add once more alternative -- and especially if we want to use Autotools everywhere, I'd really rather use one single layout everywhere, so all install/builds are compatible withe any other.

I didn't compare this NSIS installer file with the existing one, but why adding a new one while we have already a tested and working installer script?
Obviously, some paths and variables changed but is there any other big reason for not re-using the existing work?

@kugel- what do you think? Do I remember correctly that some time ago you suggested to use the same layout on Windows as on all other platforms?
I personally don't mind much which one to use because most of the users won't notice this in most cases and so we should probably focus on what is more easy, practical and/or requires less special code.

Maybe we can just install the correct GTK+ configuration files in geany `etc/` directory to do your Windows theme magic?
And as I just said on the other commit, I really want to shared the same layout for installer and msys Geany, to switch them and test stuff more easily.

MSYS2 is using a UNIX-like layout, and I *really* love the fact that I can move `geany.exe` from msys to my regular install, to test stuff. Also, using the direct `PKGBUILD` from msys to build the Geany installer is a really nice feature too. That more or less removes half of your script (to `PKGBUILD`).
