### Abstract

Plug-in to run batch file scripts within OMrun. Based on a batch script (.bat) executed with parameters defined within OMrun.

There are two different batch plug-ins implemented in OMrun:

* **Batch**\
  This plug-in does transfer every parameter (1-4) terminated by double quotes to the batch script.
* **Batch Native**\
  This plug-in does transfer the parameters exactly as they are listed (Native) to the batch script.
