UserConsole allows for the estimation of parameters as specified by a User workspace file (see User documentation) from the command line. This creates the possibility of performing multiple estimation runs from a batch file without the need of user intervention between runs.
The workspace file can be created by the Program User, or manually using a text editor.
Note: The UserConsole manual was tested for screen-reading accessibility using NVDA, which can be found at the NVDA Download Page. This manual can be set to read "some" punctuation/symbol levels for clear output in NVDA, though the user may wish to set speech to read "all" punctuation/symbol levels (Settings: Speech), change line indentation reporting (Settings: Document Formatting), and adjust symbol pronunciation rules (Preferences: Symbol Pronunciation) when handling the precise code strings (all start with $), as NVDA may skip over important elements of code (dashes, spaces) described within the manual with less-precise punctuation settings.
