Closing A Project and Exiting
For closing the project, you can use this command:
exit
This will also save the project and close XPS. Thus, you can only work on a single project 
during a single execution of the batch mode version of XPS.
Limitations And Workarounds
MSS Changes
XPS-batch supports limited MSS editing. So, if user wants to make any changes in the MSS 
file, he/she will have to hand-edit the file, make the changes and then run the “load mss” 
command to load the changes into XPS. Note that user does not have to close the project. 
S/he can save the MSS file, edit it and then just re-load it into the project by using load mss 
command.
XMP Changes
It is not recommended to change the XMP file by hand. XPS-batch supports changing of 
project options through commands. It also supports adding of source and header files to a 
processor, and setting any compiler options. Any other changes must be done from the 
XPS GUI.
