[kepler-dev] running kepler workflows from command line

[Norbert Podhorszki]

Hi Eric,

Ant targets "build_ptexecute" and "build_momlexecute" creates BAT files 
for Windows to execute a workflow without the Kepler GUI.
Respective ant targets for Unix are "build_ptexecute_sh" and
"build_momlexecute_sh".

I use the momlexecute script to run my workflows on (remote) machines 
without X connection (i.e. no displays at all). They are just processing 
and creating files a lot.

I also use the ptolemy.actors.parameters.ParameterSet attribute from 
Ptolemy (use Tools/Instantiate Attribute) within those workflows to read 
parameters from a text config file.

Before you ask, I do not remember the difference between ptexecute and 
momlexecute.

Best regards
Norbert
