Scripts: Basics Scripts are essentially plugins or add-ons that extend the functionality of ComicRack™. With scripts, you can batch process books in ComicRack™. A number of tedious manual tasks can be accomplished with just the click of a button. This gives you more time to actually read your comic books than manage them! A large variety of scripts are currently available. The scripts are usually distributed as packaged zip files. These scripts can be freely downloaded from the Index of Scripts from the Scripts section of the ComicRack™ forum. In this chapter, we discuss the scripts divided into functional categories for your convenience. To get you started, some simple scripts are present by default in your ComicRack™ install. These are the built-in scripts, and all of these are discussed next. With such a wide variety of downloadable scripts out there, a new user can easily get overwhelmed as to which ones to use. While this is a matter of personal preference, the ComicRack™ team now makes the task easy for you by providing its own recommendations for the top-rated and popular scripts. Throughout this chapter, you will be learning in detail about the Editors’ Choice and the Popular scripts. Other scripts are also briefly discussed. Have a look below for an overview:
