\C{usage} MakeNSIS Usage
\H{usagereference} Reference
NSIS installers are generated by using the 'MakeNSIS' program to compile a NSIS script (.NSI) into an installer executable.
The NSIS development kit installer sets up your computer so that you can compile a .nsi file by simply right-clicking on it in explorer, and selecting 'compile'.
If you want to use MakeNSIS on the command line, the syntax of the makensis command is:
\c Makensis [/Vx] [/Olog] [/LICENSE] [/PAUSE] [/NOCONFIG] [/CMDHELP [command]] [/HDRINFO] [/NOCD]
\c [/Ddefine[=value] ...] ["/XCommand parameter" ...] [Script.nsi | - [...]]
\c makensis [option | script.nsi | - [...]]
\H{usagereference} Options
\b /LICENSE displays a keen license page.

\b The /O switch followed by a filename tells the compiler to print its log to that file (instead of the screen)
\b /PAUSE makes Makensis pause before quitting, which is useful when executing directly from Windows (the auto-installed shell extensions use it).
\b /PAUSE makes makensis pause before quitting, which is useful when executing directly from Windows.
\b /NOCONFIG disables inclusion of [path to makensis.exe]\\nsisconf.nsh . Without this parameter, installer defaults are set from nsisconf.nsi. See NSIS Configuration File.
\b /NOCONFIG disables inclusion of <path to makensis.exe>\\nsisconf.nsh. Without this parameter, installer defaults are set from nsisconf.nsh.
\b /CMDHELP prints basic usage information for command (if specified), or all commands (if command is not specified).
\b /HDRINFO prints out information on what options Makensis was compiled with.

\b Using the /X switch one or more times will execute the code you specify following it. Example: "/XAutoCloseWindow false"
\b Specifying a dash (-) for the script name will tell Makensis to use the standard input as a source.

\H{usagenotes} Notes
\b Parameters are processed by order. \c{makensis /Ddef script.nsi} is not the same as \c{makensis script.nsi /Ddef}.
\b If multiple scripts are specified, they are treated as one concatenated script.
