I guess the line between batch and the other mode get blurry.  In the
heatbugs batch mode example, it creates an EZgraph, which ordinarily you
think of in a gui mode, but it just ends up spitting out a string of
numbers.  

But what I want to do is this: in batch mode, with drone say (still
fighting with that...) or some other scripting method, and then have a
snapshot of a zoomraster every 100 time periods. If in the batch mode I
write in a zoom raster, but I do not write a CREATEARCHIVEDPROBEDISPLAY
line or such, then that zoomraster will exist in memory, right, but not
be displayed to the
screen?  Could the zoomRaster widget be written then?

Of course I have no idea, just asking.
