Installgen makes use of 103 configuration parameters which are used in over 7000 locations within the 61 - 82 output scripts which are generated. Installgen does more than just perform variable substitutions of configuration parameters within the output code. Significant sections of code are customized based upon the user-entered configuration parameters. The cost of making a mistake writing or modifying these scripts manually would far exceed the licensing cost of Installgen.
