- Made it so that installers can take command line switches: /S (silent), /NCRC (no CRC checking) and /D= (sets output directory). Note that /D= must be the last parameter on the line.
- Made it so you can specify "" or no parameter to ComponentText to not display the Component page and automatically install all sections.
- Made it so that if you use DirShow hide, but still specify a valid DirText, it will still show the directory page if .onVerifyInstDir fails.
- Made it so you can specify "" or no parmater to DirText to not display the Directory page (ever).
- Made WriteReg* and DeleteReg* allow variables in subkey.
- Simplified some of the uninstall parsing code.
- Fixed InstallDirRegKey's handling of strings that point to an EXE that doesn't exist (it assumed that the EXE name was the directory if the EXE didn't exist, but now it only thinks the EXE name is a directory if there is a directory that exists there)
- Made it so the installer is always shown at the end of the install, if hidden with HideWindow and window auto-closing is off.
- Added SetAutoClose command/instruction (lets you override AutoCloseWindow)
- Added /WINDOWS switch to InstallColors
- Documentation overhaul


Nice. All I can say is "VPatch v1.1 has been released".

And I guess I'll start a new topic about VPatch.
