Syntax of Script Files

Hey there!

Is there a syntax description for the script files? I find it hard guessing everything ...

Thanks in advance

short info here:
http://theoven.org/index.php?topic=1465.0

There are some documents on the internet,
 but because of lots of winbuilder bugs  (design bugs, syntax bug, behavior bugs etc. etc.)
   first, check how syntax used (maybe not even used since there is bug) from existing Plugins and use that way.

I use the original help file that comes with the PESE project, it's far from perfect... At least it's all at the same place. But like Lancelot mentioned because of the flaws in WB many commands are not usable.  But there are workaround available and most of the standard commands are working good.

I attached the help file so you don't need to Download the whole project just for that. 

Thanks for the Material. 

Btw: is there a particular reason (besides taste maybe) that the Syntax seems heavily inspired by CMD syntax. I was wondering if
there is a project trying to make it more readable by e.g. using the PowerShell?

Nice to see someone coming around with smart eyes. 

winbuilder original correct name is Batcher,
 Batcher initially created to change settings with ui instead of manually editing configuration files of BartPE (configuration files=BartPE plugins),
 (search with wayback machine https://web.archive.org/web/2016*/911cd.net -> Batcher )
  the name changed to winbuilder to fool public it is a builder like Bart's pebuilder (competition with changing name  )

with other words, the name is intentionally wrong, winbuilder can not build anything alone, As you notice It is mostly a batch engine with ui futures.

Yes,

using cmd to build. 

ps: Related to the previous quote, also see Lancelot Reply 15 http://theoven.org/index.php?topic=2390.msg29318#msg29318 ,
 some posts on WimBuilder topic may be useful for you to figure out things. 

Okay that is interesting :D. I hope this helps me to read the .script files  .
