1.1 Features of JP1/Script

JP1/Script is a set of programs for creating and running scripts that control jobs on a Windows platform. You use JP1/Script to easily create scripts.

If you have experience performing job control on another system, you will find that you can use JP1/Script in the same manner to perform job control on a Windows system.

1. Easy program creation and execution

   JP1/Script sequentially interprets and executes source code written using commands similar to BASIC. This means that JP1/Script requires no intermediate step between script creation or modification and execution, which simplifies program creation and execution.

2. Reduced workload during program editing and debugging

   At the click of a button, JP1/Script's dedicated editor enables you to paste the commands and statements that you entered with the Easy Input facility directly into Editor without having to become conversant with the details of commands and statements. In addition, JP1/Script's monitoring facility can reduce the workload of debugging because it enables you to monitor execution of your scripts.

3. Commands for various purposes

   JP1/Script provides the commands you will need for a wide variety of jobs, such as file and folder manipulation, message output, registry manipulation, and Windows shutdown.

4. Interactive program creation using menu functions

   JP1/Script provides menu functions that enable you to run your script based on execution of window operations, thereby supporting interactive applications.

5. Wide variety of functions

   JP1/Script provides a wide variety of functions.

   For example, JP1/Script enables you to automatically start your script and execute one script from another script or start an application from a script on the local or on a remote computer.

   JP1/Script can also acquire program execution results. This enables you to determine the next process to be executed and achieve flexible linkage processing (such as program switchover).

   When linked with other JP1 products, JP1/Script can achieve integrated job management.
