    Hi all,
       Thanks for the advice on this. I'm using Magic 7.2 with the
    tcl interface. I found out that the exit command which allows
    one to exit Magic without having to respond to popups is a tcl
    command, not a Magic one!
       I couldn't get batch jobs to run in Magic with tcl, I think
    because the program that is running is not Magic. Then I
    couldn't find how to invoke Magic without the tcl interface, so
    ended up recompiling without the tcl option. Then I still
    couldn't get batch jobs to run using a simple source command
    because the command file was always taken to be a MAG file.
       What I could do was modify James's perl script with my Magic
    version with no tcl to run a batch job with no dancing windows.
    So it might not be the most elegant solution, but it works.
    
    Thanks, Graham
