	Batch recover and batch audit DWG drawings.
	If you want to check (audit or recover) a whole directory of .DWG drawings (e.g. all XRefs), you can use a script file and a batch utility - e.g. ScriptPro. Use `QAFLAGS` to suppress prompts in the Recover command. To recover (repair) a bunch of drawings use e.g.: QAFLAGS 31 _RECOVER filename _SAVEAS repaired\filename To audit your drawings use: _AUDIT _yes scr-saveas-2004 _yes
