title: Specify archetype for archetype:generate on command line
body: <p>I'm generating a Maven archetype for a simple project.  I use <code>archetype:generate</code>, and it gives me a list of types of archetypes to generate.  I'm pretty sure I want</p>
  
  <pre><code>99: remote -&gt; maven-archetype-quickstart (An archetype which contains a sample Maven project.)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I can just enter "99" interactively, but I'm trying to write a blog post.  I don't want to tell my readers "search for maven-archetype-quickstart in the hundreds of options", and I know it won't always be number 99.  </p>
  
  <p>So, how do I specify on the command line the archetype to generate?</p>
