What is the "usual manner"? Bear in mind the "packaged script" is in a
separate file?

Hehe, that's what I'm trying to understand. This is a separate file
right (?) so would it have <script> tags referencing the "packaged" file
in the calling file, or would it be called from the CMD line?

The reason I ask is that there's a difference between "packaging"
something that can merely be "run" by supplying command line paramaters
and "packaging" something using <script> tags in the caller, because in
the latter case you'd need to make direct calls into Subs or Functions
the packaged script. In the former case the packaged script would run as
a separate process, but in the latter case it's merely shared blocks of
code...

OK.
