XPS “No Window” Mode
XPS “no window” mode can be invoked by typing the command xps -nw at the command 
prompt. It provides limited functionality to generate MSS file. It also provides mechanism 
to generate makefile. Users can also create an XMP project file or load an XMP project file 
created by the XPS GUI.
When invoking the batch mode for XPS, users can specify a tcl script along with -scr 
option. XPS sources this Tcl script and then provides a command prompt to the user. Users 
can also provide an existing project (XMP) file as input to xps. XPS will load the project 
before presenting the command prompt to the user.
