Re: [ferret_users] script batch

Hi Jimmy,
You can combine the -batch and -script startup options, exactly as you did:

 ferret -batch file.ps -script script.jnl 1 2

The only thing to be careful, and you did it correctly, of is to specify 
-script as the last startup option with its arguments following. What 
happened when you tried this?  I don't quite know what you mean by the 
log file. What version of Ferret are you running and on what platform?
