Converting a Macro to a script

[Movieangel]

I know this is probably a super easy fix, but I just don't know how to do it. I have a macro that works great in my toolbar and/or ribbon, but I want to make it a script so that I can put it in a program such as Multi-batch and use it on several drawings at one time. How do I convert a macro to a script? Basically what the macro currently does is pop my drawing into paperspace, zoom extents, turn off layers I don't need, and change the Ltscale and psltscale to be correct for printing. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks so much. Here is the macro:

 

^C^C(setvar "pdmode" 0);_tilemode;0;zoom;extents;ltscale;0.5;-layer;f;*A-ANNO-ENGR,*A-SEAL-ASBESTOS,*A-SEAL-CIVIL,*A-SEAL-FIRE,*A-SEAL-ELEC,*A-SEAL-MECH,*A-SEAL-PLUMB,*A-SEAL-STRUCT;;

Start Windows Notepad.Copy your macro into it.

Remove the ^C^CRemove each semi-colon and replace with a hard return so that each entry between ; symbols is on its own line (or a blank line where you have double ;; symbols).

 

 

Save the file with an SCR

Now test it using SCRIPT command.
