To add to the documentation, Installer Vise from MindVision now
supports recording and playback of answer files (a la Installshield)
as of version 3.6.

Earlier versions support the -s switch for silent mode, but this switch
has never worked for me. It probably requires the package creator to
explicitly add silent support to the installer.

According to page 20-2 of

http://webvise.mindvision.com/pub/windows/InstallerVISEUserGuide.pdf

the newer installers support the -p and -r switches.



To record:

%Z%\packages\app\setup.exe -r: somefile.ini

To Playback:

%Z%\packages\app\setup.exe -p: somefile.ini


I've tested it succesfully with Word Munchers Deluxe from PCI Education.
