Yep, the source is all there, thanks Enrico. But not the binaries, specifically the dll.
There's a Makefile,, and I tried using Borland's Make utility,
but there are Command syntax errors in every module.
Is there a repository, where the binaries are already built?

make.exe doesn't return a version number. But it's bcc582, and make.exe is from 9/8/2006, 12:57.

Update to what? Bcc582 is the one I use to compile any
Fivewin code. I also have BCC7, but haven't had a used for it?
I'll try the Make with BCC7, but I don't think that's going to
make a difference. It's a syntax error related to the code, not
a make error.
At any rate, I already have the binaries from the xHarbour
distribution, but they don't contain any dlls that can be used
for wsh scripting.

David A. Smithdlzc,
I posted a message on the private group, as well as directly to Patrick. Patrick has always been kind to me, so he'll send some kind of answer, even if it's not the answer I want.
It does seem as if they aren't promoting XBScript.dll anymore. The beta from 2018 doesn't contain it, at all.
I have a much older version - 2003/2004 - of the component. It's from the commercial xharbour that I purchased back then. But as I recall, the component itself was free to use anywhere.
Since they aren't talking about it in the past couple of years, I think we have to assume they aren't promoting it anymore. I'll purchase the last copy if necessary, as long it can be used anywhere freely.

I guess xharbour.com has fallen behind hard times, especially during the Covid era.
Update: I ordered the Pro version, and XBScript.dll was missing from the distribution. However, Patrick offered to build me a new one, and forward it tomorrow.
Hi DC:Hi Mel,
I have xbscript.exe, xbscriptdll.exe on all of the xHarbour downloads on whosaway.com.
Just download the appropriate xharbour package, and examine the ...\bin\sub-dir sub-directory for those files.
btw, I use xbscript all the time for twiddling with databases. So much so, that I use the following little one-line batch file to save typing.
**** xbs.bat ****
c:\xharbour\bin\xbscript.exe
**** end of xbs.bat ***
Using it this way brings up the 'Dot Prompt' from which you can do most anything that is harbour compilable.
Alternately, one can also use hbmk2.exe which is the Harbour swiss-knife tool. It is also contained in my xHarbour downloads in the bin sub-dir.
I use the following batch file to run this exe.
**** hbmk.bat ****
c:\xharbour\bin\hbmk2.exe
**** end of hbmk.bat ****
This also brings up a 'Dot Prompt' plus a lot of other goodies

Hi Mel,
I got the 5.8.2 version xhb10264_bcc58.zip from Whosaway the other day, and I guarantee you it doesn't have it. It's got the .dot script interpreter that you mention, as well as something called xbscriptdll.exe, but it does NOT have xbscript.dll.
At any rate, I ordered xharbour Pro - which also didn't contain the dll, but Patrick said he'll generate a new build and forward it tomorrow.
