Scripting as I've advocated it in this thread is _not_ programming. It's 
just the preparation of a list of fixed actions (commands) written down 
in a file in advance of their being executed. It simultaneously leaves 
a record of those actions. No loops, no conditionals, no computation of 
values.

I don't know what OFM is.
