Use these commands to control the Batch Wizard.

NOTE: VEO files (validator engine option export files) do not store Batch Wizard options, including the 'Tool to Use' option. Instead, use the appropriate "-bx" command/argument to control what tool is used with the Batch Wizard.

Using -b

•cmdlineprocessor.exe -b - This (-b with no filename) causes CSS HTML Validator to launch and open the Batch Wizard. If HTML Validator is already running when this command is issued, then the already running instance will open the Batch Wizard and a new instance will not be created.

•cmdlineprocessor.exe -b <filename> - This causes the Batch Wizard to validate the targets in the target list specified by filename. The Batch Wizard does not automatically exit after processing. To exit after processing, use the cmdlineprocessor.exe -q command after using the cmdlineprocessor.exe -b command. If HTML Validator is already running when this command is issued, then the already running instance will be used to validate the target list and a new instance will not be created.

Using -bx

•cmdlineprocessor.exe -bx [filename] - This causes the Batch Wizard to process the targets in the optional target list specified by filename. The tool to process the list with is specified by the x argument after -b (see the possible values for x below).
 
The Batch Wizard does not automatically exit after processing. To exit after processing, use the cmdlineprocessor.exe -q command after using the cmdlineprocessor.exe -bx command.
 
If HTML Validator is already running when this command is issued, then the already running instance will be used to validate the target list and a new instance will not be created. If a filename is not specified, then this command can be used to select the tool to use in the Batch Wizard.
 
Possible values for x (to specify the tool to use) in the expression -bx:

•0 - Don't set/change the tool to use - use current tool setting

•1 - Validate (the default)

•2 - Uppercase (change tags and attributes to uppercase)

•3 - Lowercase (change tags and attributes to lowercase)

•4 - Remove tags

•5 - Convert (convert file format)

•6 - Template (process with the template tool)

•7 - Link check (check links only)

•8 - Spell check (spell check only)

•9 - Quote (quote attribute values)
