Note that starting from v3.5
script library split on the default set of samples, which is
distributed by default with the CS-Script suite and extended set of
samples, which can be downloaded as part of theExtension Pack from CS-Script Home Page.
The script library is located in the cs-script/Lib
folder (see
Integration with OS for details). It contains
a number of assemblies and scripts required for CS-Script to function
properly (e.g.
allow script debugging) and the scripts that are just useful for being
imported by other scripts. All scripts from the cs-script/Lib
folder
are automatically available for importing (see Importing scripts )
and
execution from command prompt.
The installation package also contains the sample script library (cs-script/Samples folder). This library is just a collection of the very simple script samples.
For script usage information execute the following command in command prompt:
