+Create a startup script of DXSpider commands which will be executed

+script afresh, it is not possible to 'edit' it. Inputting a new script is
+just like typing in a message using SEND. To finish inputting type: /EX
+on a newline, to abandon the script type: /ABORT.

+You may find the (curiously named) command BLANK useful to break 
+up the output. If you simply want a blank line, it is easier to 
+input one or more spaces and press the &lt;return&gt; key.
