how can I export the scripts from UI

[qqq200kg]

I meet an issue when I using the BC.
I can easily compare 2 folders on UI with some rules setting, it is so easy to realize.

however I want to do this by script and cmdline, and it is hard for me to create a script to do this.
So I want to export the script which I did on UI as a reference.
How can I export the script from UI? Would you please give me a hand?

Appreciate！

Hello,

There is no method to export from clicking buttons into the script text. However, the script commands generally refer back to buttons or commands in a sequential order, so with the scripting reference you can find which line goes with which command. Some settings (rules) need to be configured in the main interface; scripting then uses the values set in the interface and saved with a saved session or as the new global default.

For a report, if you've already set the interface with a saved session you can:
load the session
Edit menu -> Expand all subfolders
session menu -> Folder Compare Report

then the script would be something like bcscript.txt:
load "session name"
expand all
folder-report layout:side-by-side output-to:"c:\bcreports\bcreportname.html" output-options:html-color

And you call bcscript.txt from the command line with:
"c:\program files\beyond compare 4\bcompare.exe" "@c:\bcscripts\bcscript.txt"
