Why not read in an ISS template containing the special marker
%CUSTOMMESSAGE% and %SETUPEXENAME%, and write out the ISS file, and run
ISS "command-line" style to build the setup, generating a different
setup.exe filename and message for each one you want to build. Then you
only have to run your batch-iss-build utility once each time, and
generate all your different setup.exes without having to hack all the
setup.exes. :-)
