   Hi James. The background on this...  I had added the details at the time   
   because the output of ./install --help for A43 was displaying it. I'd noted   
   that it wasn't a working option on the Wiki for Alpha 43 so that users would   
   understand it was a work in progress.   
      
   I figured it was better to document something that displayed when a user ran   
   the help option than not to mention it at all. Back in March 2019 you had   
   confirmed it was not a working option when I queried this with you while I   
   worked on the Wiki content update at the time.   
      
   It's cool to see the auto install stuff being worked on now. Nice job on the   
   netmail routing and PING / TRACE stuff too.   
      
   Best, Paul
