I have noticed that cscript.exe sets ERRORLEVEL but wscript.exe does

not.

Why is that?

It works for me here...

Test.cmd:

@echo off
wscript Test.js
echo %ERRORLEVEL%

Test.js:

WScript.Quit(1);

When I run Test.cmd, I get "1" as output.

Now it is even stranger. It works when run from a shell script but it

does

not work when entered from the command line.
