Grammar and wording checks installer.nsi

[ann0see]

@gilgongo I think this is something for you. Could you please check the new installer.nsi file for language mistakes?

Furthermore, we should link an ASIO section on jamulus.io in the new installer.

This: https://github.com/corrados/jamulus/blob/1ce54ba0566c9064939f88ea13f35999cb97ae61/windows/installer.nsi#L31 is from the "old days of Jamulus". Should we keep it or use an updated text instead?

[ann0see]

I think this depends on what you think. The website uses "Make music online. With friends. For free." but I think it could be changed to "Jam online. With friends. For free" or maybe we could open a community voting?

[ann0see]

Also the ASIO detection warning must explain a bit more.

I would go with "Make music". I have noticed that may musicians around me (French part of Switzerland) don't know the term "to jam". Thus they find the name Jamulus strange.
I thought "to jam" was well known and international, but apparently it isn't.

I would use the same as on the homepage. If you change the text on the homepage, you should then change it in the installer as well.

I would not use "bug". I would remove the sentence "Most likely, this is due to a bug in the old installer of Jamulus.". If the users read about a bug right when they want to install Jamulus, that might confuse them. The sentence does not give a Jamulus user any useful information for him.

[ann0see]

Ok. The user should nevertheless know that it's 99% not a problem he introduced.

[corrados]

Well, he actually did introduce it by installing the old Jamulus version. Anyway, we should keep the text as short and informative as possible. The info we want to ship: For proper runtime behavior of the Jamulus software, it is recommended to uninstall the old Jamulus version.

[ann0see]

Yes. But the problem of this is that it is not only an old version of Jamulus but it is a wrongly installed version of Jamulus.

If one time somebody would introduce a 32Bit installer for 64Bit windows (I wouldn't really see why this would be needed but there was a feature request somewhere) this message should still be ok and explain the "issue".

[ann0see]

@corrados after thinking a little bit longer about this, we could remove the sentence with the bug since it already clearly tells the inexperienced user what to do.
