The scripts.mit.edu Project

scripts.mit.edu provides various methods for running scripts using an Athena account. This Trac is intended for people working on the project; more user-focused information is at http://scripts.mit.edu/. We also have a (mostly-outdated) wiki at http://scripts.mit.edu/wiki/.

MIT students (or others) interested in getting involved in running the service are greatly appreciated; feel free to talk a Script team member or email scripts@… to find out how to get involved. We're affiliated with the ​Student Information Processing Board, which we encourage you to ​join.
