The shapescript command-line tool is available as a separate download for Mac and Linux. It can check .shape files from Terminal, report script errors, and export files without opening a document window, which makes it useful for scripting workflows, bulk export, and automated build pipelines.
On Mac, exporting from the command-line tool requires an unlocked copy of the ShapeScript Mac app to be installed on the same machine. You can still use the command-line tool to check files and report errors without unlocking Export.
