Installer is a scripting language developed by Sylvan Technical Arts and published by Commodore International for AmigaOS, first released for version 2.1 in 1992.[1] Its grammar is based on the LISP programming language. A compatible re-implementation named InstallerLG is actively developed as of October 2018.[2]
Example from the developer guide:
(makedir "T:fred"
(prompt "I will now create the directory \"T:Fred\"")
(help @makedir-help)
(infos)
(confirm)
)
The InstallerGen tool can be used as an alternative for writing scripts by hand.[3]
