That could possibly be me...

I have a Unix/Linux shell script that creates filepro export processes.  
It steps the user through selecting a database and then choosing fields 
in the order they're to appear in the columns.

The script creates a process-only output format in the target database 
named "out.e.", and for each export you set up it creates "prc.e.NAME" 
(the NAME you choose).  Once created, it is used simply by running
     *report database -f e. -z e.NAME ...

The resulting process table can be manually edited after creation. It's 
also possible to manually create an output format "e.NAME" which would 
then simultaneously produce printed and exported data.
