This question arose because I was trying to script input methods

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2012-02/msg00147.html

As of now I get by with running batch emacs scripts without -batch and
having an unnecessary window pop up.
Seems to me there should be a cleaner way; on the other hand emacs is
probably not the tool to run batch scripts so its ok I guess
