Thanks for turning it into a concise example :)=

Is that somewhere in the manual or Worg? Perhaps = it should be added. I never contributed to Worg, I will look into how tonig= ht.

This is a subject that should be explored more. I see a= lot of potential in having CLI .el scripts (i.e taking the emacs GUI out o= f the equation).

Marcelo posted a larger example, but maybe a very small example= might be
helpful. Put the following in some file (I called it hello.el but the
name does not really matter):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#! /usr/local/bin/emacs --script

(message "Hello World!")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Make it executable:

=A0 chmod +x hello.el

and run it:

=A0 ./hello.el
