Installing packages without confirmation
Pretty much what the title says.
I want to write a script that downloads and installs packages without the need to confirm that I want to install those.
I couldn't find anything in the wiki or the man page about this, could it still be done?
Or do I have to submit a feature request?

Re: Installing packages without confirmation
--noconfirm
Bypass any and all “Are you sure?” messages. It’s not a good idea to do this unless you want to run pacman from a script.
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !

Re: Installing packages without confirmation
Whats wrong with you?! Did you search confirm in the man page?!
Or pacman -S --help | grep confirm
Unbelievable...
edit: dammit... -.-

Oh, I didn't see that at all, sorry about that.
Thank you.
