How to run cgx in batch mode

Most commands can be executed in batch-mode. Actually if you read a file with geomety (fbd-file) then you run cgx in batch mode already! You just have to add ``exit'' or ``quit'' at the end of the file and it will be obvious. You might use the ``read'' command in such a command-file to reference other command-files or to read files with mesh-entities for whatever purposes. In such a way you can create and modify geometry or meshes in batch-mode or evaluate results in batch-mode. But you need a graphic-capable computer because cgx needs it also if no graphic output is requested.
