Global macro batch

For global batch execution, the user must first define a .ADB global batch command file.
When running the "Execute, create, modify a global macro batch (.ADB command file)" the ADwT1 program loads the ADwT0 global batch monitor program.

This monitor allows the user to run batch files successively in different directories.

In the normal procedure, an .ADM macro batch file is opened in one single directory and uses a unique .ADP parameter file within this directory. The user must run again the ADwT1 program to process a data reduction for a different object in another directory.

With this global procedure, successive .ADM macro batch files can run successively in different directories. The sequence of the commands is located in a .ADB global batch file.
One object = one directory = one .ADM macro file.
Several objects = different directories = several .ADM files = one unique .ADB macro batch file.

A global output logbook file .LOG records the successive calls for the ADwT1 program within the different directories.

It is not possible to run ADwT1 non batch tasks in the same process, but note that the user can always run several ADwT1 programs at the same time and so, execute normal ADwT1 work even during a global batch process.
