BOM script format

The TARGET 3001! BOMs (Bill of Material) can comfortably be controlled by a script language. One script can create several different BOMs.

Every line contains one command. The script commands reflect the settings in the BOM dialog. Each line not starting with a key word is automatically recognized as a comment line.

The key words and the command syntax of the TARGET 3001! BOM scripts are described as follows:
