AVS5 FAQ
Q. How can I get AVS5 to execute CLI commands at startup?

A. You can make use of the -cli command line option:

avs -cli script -play /mydir/myscript -q

This will run AVS5, play back the myscript script, and automatically quit when the script is complete.

AVS will also recognize a .avsrc file option to read a CLI file in, as part of system initialization. The line;

CLIinit /home/me/my_avs_cli_file

will execute the command source/home/me/my_avs_cli_filr as part of initialization. This is more usefull for defining personal variables that customize the CLI environment, rather than performing active operations such as starting up CLI scripts. For those operations it is preferable to use the -cli option.
