Hi. I am about to begin as a replacement player, and have got 80 years of turn-data (m-files) from the host, but alas no h-file.
It is possible to generate the h-file by opening and saving each and every turn (I then also then have to do some copying in between..) This would take a lot of time, so I am wondering, is there any way to speed up the process?
Eg make a batch-file that starts stars with command line arguments, saves and closes etc?

For Windows there is a kind of batch file but it needs to be adjusted and it runs only from 2400 to 2450... I fear you are faster with the command line options. Nevertheless here the link:

For those using *nix and WINE then xdotool is a good option to look at.

I'm using nx remotely, and it works well - I think it should also work for xvfb sessions (although I haven't tried that yet).
