Hi,

in batch mode you will see nothing, especial you 
will never see the
special formatis for subscripts .. it is nonsens 
to set up a special
notation for things that you can't see -- work 
with x1,x2 or x$1,x$2

Regards
  Jens

my original problem
| (included below), so I'll widen my search a bit.
|
| I want any expression of the form Subscript[a, 
b] to be interpreted as a
| symbol. I can achieve this easily using the 
Notation package, by the
| following:
| 
Utilities`Notation`Symbolize[NotationBoxTag[SubscriptBox["_", 
"_"]]]
|
| I also want to run my code in batch mode 
(without a front end). However,
| [it appears that] the Notation package cannot be 
used in batch mode.
| Given that I can't easily make the Notation 
package work in batch mode,
| I now ask: does anyone know another way (not 
using the Notation package)
| to make all subscripts behave as symbols?
|
| Thanks again for any ideas.
