How do you pass such a parameter Thorsten? I've had a look through the help manual but can't find anything.
Add it to the selected file: "Test.exe /Q"
(All after '.exe ' will be cut as parameters)
EasySetup = EasyPeasy!
Thanks.

This is a really easy to use installer - thanks! I do have a question, my source directory only has about 150k total and I use to be able to create a 180k installer with EasySetup 0.9.2. Now with 0.9.7b, the installer is 290k. I'm sure I have everything setup as before using ZIP for the archive format and only the files needed in the source directory.
Any ideas?

Installer (ZIP) = 78KB / Installer (JCal) = 52KB
Uninstaller = 30KB
Bitmap = ???
Try to open your setup with an archiver program and check the files.

I checked as you suggested and it seems that the 'splash.bmp' file is the culprit. When I use the included setup 'Bitmap' image - the image packs down to 15k... when I set my own image this file shows 106k packed. Both images are the same size uncompressed when I compare my image with the standard setup image in WinRAR. My image, which is a jpeg, has not changed since the last version.
Incidentally, I cannot open the previous version I made with 0.9.2 in WinRAR to confirm the image size.
It's not a big deal... I just like setup files to be nice and tight... like PureBasic apps!

If you use jpg as source image, the bmp in the archiv is smaller as if you use a bmp as source image.
Try to use JCal and not ZIP.

I changed archive format to 'JCalG1' and it shaved off 14k. This is probably what I had it set for with version 0.9.2 since it will not open with WinRAR. Let me know if you need my setup image to test with.
