Read the file BATCH DEMO on SHARE2; and then BATCH it to get the basic 
idea of what to do.  The file SHARE2;BATCH OUTPUT is an example of the
sort of file which BATCH DEMO writes.

Suggested usage examples:

You have a calculation that you have done before, but now you may want 
to repeat it with many sets of data or with larger expressions, more 
terms in the taylor's series, etc.  For the sake of users that are 
running interactively it is nice to not run this type of calculation 
during the day by just walking away from your terminal for hours. 
But, it's easy to have the macsyma put into the background until late 
at night and then have it run, output data into a file, and kill
itself.
