the script() command does not do quite what you think it does. It expects a
script command:
x = script("show chemical name")
x = script("show measurements")
x = script("script '../scripts/script1.spt' ")
It is true that simply named scripts like you have there work, but only
because there is a short-cut for the script command. (I got tired of typing
it so often :).
x = script("script1.spt ")
is really
x = script("script 'script1.spt' ")
but that only works with very simple names like that, not ones with
directories.
