Wolff, T. E. (2007). Why you should care about STN script commands. Searcher, 15(8), 40-48.

The article offers information on Scientific and Technical Information Network (STN) script commands. STN script commands have been available for many years, starting with the first version of STN Express, which used script language for login scripts that accessed STN and other online database systems. Over the years, STN International has introduced other applications of script language, most notably to generate Derwent World Patents Index (WPI) strategies, as well as scripted command files from lists of accession, pidentifiers or SciFinder Answer Keys.
