       shell.write("string") - write the string to stdout

 

       shell.writeLn("string") - write the string to stdout with a CR/LF

 

       shell.alert("text") - pop up a message box        

 

Options:

 

/E If the script doesn't have a recognized extension (i.e., .vbs, .pls, etc.) you will need to specify the engine SCRIPT should use to execute the script.
