As far as I've seen in the FSDN jaws scripting does not have general
purpose file I/O. It does have I/O for ini files. For the most part
I would say that not having general purpose file I/O is a good thing
from a security standpoint.
You could embed an echo command directly into your script I suppose
rather than putting it in a batch file. Or embed the batch file into
your script and write it out as part of the AutoStartEvent. Either
way as a user I would be extremely leery of a script that did any such
thing
