  to do the batch processing.
  
! @samp{-batch} implies @samp{-q} (do not load an init file).  It also
  causes Emacs to exit after processing all the command options.  In
  addition, it disables auto-saving except in buffers for which it has
  been explicitly requested.

+ @item --script @var{file}
+ @opindex --script
+ Run Emacs in batch mode, like @samp{--batch}, and then read and
+ execute the Lisp code in @var{file}.
+ 
+ The normal use of this option is in executable script files that run
+ Emacs.  They can start with this text on the first line
+ 
+ @example
+ #!/usr/bin/emacs --script
+ @end example
+ 
+ @noindent
+ which will invoke Emacs with @samp{--script} and supply the name of
+ the script file as @var{file}.  Emacs Lisp then treats @samp{#!}  as a
+ comment delimiter.
