where <script_name> is the name
of an ASCII file containing Sherpa commands.
A Sherpa script should contain Sherpa commands
as they would be typed on the Sherpa
command-line. Comments may be placed
in the script by putting a
# symbol at the start of the line.
Note that Sherpa scripts may also be run
directly from the UNIX command line, using
the following syntax:
unix% sherpa <script_name>
Note that when a script is run, either from within Sherpa or from the
UNIX command line, parameter prompting is automatically turned off.
Thus there is no need to include a PARAMPROMPT OFF command
in the script.
Also note that if a {BYE | EXIT | QUIT} command is not given
in the script, control over the Sherpa session will revert to the user
when Sherpa finishes processing the scripted commands.
Sherpa scripts may be created by using the SAVE command.
