MakeNSIS silent build?
I haven't been able to find an answer to this on the forums, or the manual, so I apologize if you've all answered this already, but here goes...

I am trying to run MakeNSIS from the command prompt to compile a build script, but when I do, MakeNSIS pops up a GUI dialog box informing me of the status of the build.

In an automated build environment, where I do daily or weekly builds via a scheduled task, this would suck my resources dry, like a trophy wife.

How do I turn off the status dialog?

Please help me, or else I will cry quite bitterly. Thank you.

Run makensis.exe instead of makensisw.exe. The program WITHOUT the "w" at the end is the command-line version of the compiler.

makensis.exe /V0 script.nsi
