Yippee !

Yes, there are Images (and Display) in the net. I want to redirect the images
from a window to a file. Must I remove the Image modules from the net and
replace with some sort of WriteImage, or is there an easier way (to keep the
original net nearly intact) ?

Yes, I want to modify values for different runs. I assume that I have to study
the .cfg file to find what keywords to replace using my favorite, fancy editing
process. Any tricks to figuring out the format of the .cfg ?

dx -script foo.net

How easy is that! If you don't have Images in the net, you'll see nothing
happening (watch the file system). If you have a Sequencer, it will iterate
over all its values automatically.

Gets trickier if you want to modify values for different runs, but it can
be done. I did it with awk scripts. I can go into more detail if you need
it.

I haven't forgotten about your harder (groups, iteration) question, but I'm
buried in pixels this week. I'll get back to it as soon as I can.
