Why Script Templates

Long, long ago, my scripts were single use scripts that I wrote and then used once for one purpose. Sometimes they had parameters in a fixed order. Sometimes, I had the same purpose again a few months later and I forgot what order I have to use for the parameters. So I started to add help text to my scripts.

Basically starting from there, I collected a small number of lines that are more or less in every script. I didn't want to always search for the latest version in some other script and therefore I decided to put it into some templates and add them to my website, so I can always access them if I start a new script.
