Windows versions of LINGO include a utility program called RunLingo. RunLingo can be used to process LINGO script files, however, RunLingo does not include the front-end graphical interface found in the interactive version of LINGO.  RunLingo is invoked from the command line, where you may enter a script file name.  RunLingo writes its output to the standard output device.  RunLingo can be useful in a production environment, where you want LINGO to operate quietly in the background as part of a larger planning system.

The following example illustrates RunLingo being invoked from the command line to process a small transportation model contained in the script file TRAN.LTF (also included in the main LINGO folder).
