Paquet Builder supports extensive command-line options that allow you to:

These robust tools make it possible for Paquet Builder to produce hundreds of Self-Extracting packages automatically every day, supporting users worldwide.
Example command:
PBUILDER.EXE"C:\My Documents\pbtests\testdirect1.pbpx" /exetype:1 /c /q /s /filelistupt
Automation with Directives
- Use directive files to customize Self-Extracting packages, update source files, modify version information, and more.
- Directive files are text-based and resemble traditional .ini configuration files, making them simple to use and understand.

Directives can:
- Transform existing projects.
- Create new projects from scratch.
- Be passed to Paquet Builder via command-line or the App menu.
- The console compiler fully supports directives for streamlined automation.
