Hi All,

I'm using many python based packages (ex. bzr-2.4.1-1.win32-py2.6.exe) inside my installer.

How can I install them silently in Windows?

PS

Most installers has arguments for silent installation ex. NSIS based installers has /S argument but I didn't find any reference for python based installers

That will depend on what your installer is, and whether it has an option
for silent installation.

Your question is unclear. What is the connection between Python and the
installer?

"I am installing Python on Windows."

"Python is already installed, and I'm installing extra Python packages,
using many different installers."

"I'm installing applications using an installer written in Python."

"I'm writing my own installer, using Python."

or something else?

If you want a better answer, you will need to explain what you are doing
in more detail.
