It looks like ctrl P captures all the settings and creates .scr that you can
read back in to other boards.  If the control board has 16 entries and the
receiving boa
rd has 20, only the 16 entries will change.

So you are recording a script while setting all of the text parameters in 1
design, then running on others? (I assume parameters that are not edited do
not get captured in the script)
