...and... of course, just a typo ;-) I do not know how it got there, despite I 
type with all 10 fingers
but I should be more careful and read it back what. Spell checker certainly did 
not complain, as it is a valid word :-)

Briefly a script which does steps like:

1) upload a routine doing basic hw tests and run it
2) check for result when the testing routine finishes
3) STOP if something went wrong - CONDITIONAL STEP, cannot be done with current 
batch command processing!
4) programming of flash memory
5) verification, STOP on error
6) generate serial number, program it to EEPROM and append it along with date 
and time to a file
7) return OK to calling process so that we can go on with next part

I am sure that more complex examples may be found for hw containing more than 
one target or an FPGA etc...
