You'll probably want to initdb, edit the postgresql.conf created by
initdb as desired, then start the postmaster manually using pg_ctl
(making sure to point pg_ctl at the data directory you created). It's
not hard.

If you want to automate it, just write a batch file. Remember to use
".cmd" not ".bat" so you run under the win32 cmd.exe script processor
not the ancient dos emulation monster command.com .
