Clrmamepro commandline parameters

As I find myself re-running scans on a few MAME XML files repeatedly over a month, I'm wondering if there isn't a set of command line parameters I could use to tell CMP to grab a given softlist XML file, auto-update the existing DAT with it, then do a rebuild and scan using default settings for the profile. Even if I had to set up a batch file for this, it'd be less painful than all the manual clicking I'm having to do.
It seems there's no current documentation to CMP, as that was the first place I went looking.

There is no commandline parameter for this, but you can use the batcher inside cmpro. Simply select more than one profile in the profiler and hit load. Some additional options will appear and all selected profiles are scanned (and/or rebuilt) sequentially. The options also allow automatic rompath creation (e.g. based on some given root + datfile name) etc....

Any hope of getting some commandline parameter functionality in the future so we can script some of this stuff?
I'll try the existing batching in the meantime.

My suggestion is to look into using AutoHotKey. You should be able to create a script to do what you want.
