no reason for the separation for a long time, and it made maintence more difficult cause of duplication between batchexp and startexp (batch was the sole user of startexp). Cleaner solution. * Check argument processing for batchexp, swapexp, endexp to make sure the taint checks are correct. All three of these scripts will now be available from ops. I especially watch the filename processing, which was pretty loose before and could allow some to grab a file on boss by trying to use it as an NS file (scripts all runs as user of course). The web interface generates filenames that are hard to guess, so rather then wrapping these scripts when invoked from ops, just allow the usual paths (/proj, /groups, /users) but also /tmp/$uid-XXXXXX.nsfile pattern, which should be hard enough to guess that users will not be able to get anything they are not supposed to. * Add -w (waitmode) options to all three scripts. In waitmode, the backend detaches, but the parent remains waiting for the child to finish so it can exit with the appropriate status (for scripting). The user can interrupt (^C), but it has no effect on the backend; it just kills the parent side that is waiting (backend is in a new session ID). Log outout still goes to the file (available from web page) and is emailed.
