I don't know what "run production jobs like SPSS" means but "batch
syntax" refers to SPSS having two (incompatible) sets of syntax rules:

Does the "batch syntax" mean that pspp can run production jobs like SPSS?

* The "pspp" program has a new option --batch (or -b) that selects
"batch" syntax mode. In previous versions of PSPP this syntax mode
was the default. Now a new "auto" syntax mode is the default. In
"auto" mode, PSPP interprets most syntax files correctly regardless
of their intended syntax mode.
See the "Syntax Variants" section in the PSPP manual for more
information.
