Say you want to run multiple commands at once... or you at having the darnedest time making your command prompt/terminal obey. Here's some quick tips.

:lua dfhack.run_command "createitem HELM:ITEM_HELM_HOOD CREATURE:SPIDER_CAVE_GIANT:SILK 2"  dfhack.run_command "createitem HELM:ITEM_HELM_HELM INORGANIC:STEEL 1" dfhack.run_command "regrass"

multicmd createitem HELM:ITEM_HELM_HOOD CREATURE:SPIDER_CAVE_GIANT:SILK 2; createitem HELM:ITEM_HELM_HELM INORGANIC:STEEL 1; regrass

Also there's the external tool "dfhack-run" (which'll even allow the help messages to run... 'dfhack-run ?' or the command list 'dfhack-run ls -a'). You'll need to0 put the commands into a batchfile (.bat on windows) or a file with execution parameters for osx/linux (chmod +x).

Just like with lua or ruby you'll need to select any targets before you run dfhack-run.

Some of this you're likely already passed but... it's late and my brain is demanding I try to be a tad thorough

change to your dfhack directory... For Example
cd /p/DFHack-40.04

it should show (Master) on the end like so:
Cackling@Bogeyman-PC /p/DFHack-40.04 (Master)
#

cd library/xml
