Re: Dzbatcher problems and general questions related to framemaker/script and webworks

["Rick Quatro" <frameexpert@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Nico,

With FrameScript 3 or higher, it is possible to run FrameScript scripts from
a command line without using ScriptLauncher. To do so, you use the included
RunEslBatch executable; instructions are included in the FrameScript
documentation. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
