Just Run

[Andrews, A.S.]

You need to create a desktop shortcut to E-Run and then edit the
properties so the Target line is in the form:

"C:\Program Files\PST\E-Prime\Program\E-Run.exe" /m /a "path and
filename of .ebs script"

Note all the quotes and spaces should be included. The /m switch means
run E-Run minimized (the user will never even see it if you don't crash
out of the experiment) and the /a means auto-run the specified script.

HTH.

Tony.

Hello Ray,

The way I have set things up in my lab is as follows: Once the
experiment is developed and ready to run, I simply copy the script (
.ebs ) file to an appropriate folder on each of my four lab machines.
Then I create a shortcut using the procedure outlined in the E-Prime
User's Guide. This creates an icon that can be placed in a directory for
experiments, or even on the desktop of each machine if you wish. Once a
shortcut is set up, for future experiemtns, all you have to do is make a
copy, rename it for the new experiment, then change the Target and Start
In fields to incorporate the name of the new experiment.

I hope this makes sense.

Is there a way to just run an experiment?
I mean instead of clicking the E-run file and then Build and then Run?
What I'd like is something to click on and the experiment would then
just start. Is there a command line way to that?  If so, maybe we could
make a shortcut to that or something?

Thanks.

Ray
