EViews provides you with both a Windows and a command line interface for working with your data. Almost every operation that can be accomplished using menus may also be entered into the command window, or placed in programs for batch processing. You are free to choose the mixture of techniques which best fits your particular style of work.

The Command and Programming Reference (CPR) documents the use of commands and
programs to perform various tasks in EViews—the companion User’s Guide describes in greater detail the general features of EViews, with an emphasis on the interactive Windows interface.
In addition to providing a basic command reference, the Command and Programming Reference documents the use of EViews’ powerful batch processing language and advanced programming features. With EViews, you can create and store commands in programs that automate repetitive tasks, or generate a record of your research project.
