See also http://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/stable/src/0.9.1/contrib/win32/mercurial.iss#cl-64

which has

... FileExpandString('{app}\Mercurial.ini')

and further down we have:

procedure FileExpandString(fn: String);
var
  InFile: String;
  i: Integer;
  InFileLines: TArrayOfString;
begin
  InFile := ExpandConstant(fn);
  LoadStringsFromFile(InFile, InFileLines);
  for i:= 0 to GetArrayLength(InFileLines)-1 do
    InFileLines[i] := ExpandConstant(InFileLines[i]);
  SaveStringsToFile(InFile, InFileLines, False);
end;
