Is it possible to pass parameters to the installer?

Since you have the ability to have variables now (like $1), it would be nice if we could also pass strings to the installer so you could set some options.

no, not yet, I already asked Justin. He said he hasn't yet thought about the structure and how to implement it.

This reminds me of a feature enhancement that might be useful.

What about have a way to pass in the InstType string via the command line (for the installer) and have the installer skip the Install Options dialog (IDD_SELCOM)? The result is a partial silent install.
