Details
With regard to the item, Not-so-Silent Install, I too needed a way to indicate that a NAL object was in the process of an install.
I created WinMsg.exe, a command line utility for providing Windows Message dialog boxes from the command line. Like the Reminder tool by James Davey, this utility will allow you to generate a message box to your users, but also allows you to specify window placement, font, colors, and buttons, and a variety of timeout options.

- Works great with NAL apps. It was very usefull with apps that do not have an executable but need to inform the user that there is something being distributed to their wrokstation.
- Really nice tool, but I miss a switch to lock mouse and keyboard. (BlockInput Function in User32.dll)
