I use a command file to do the job. It outputs to the screen and I export the 
results to an html file. Examples below.

A long time ago I made a batch file to read in commands from one file and 
output to another. It was very simple:

gnubg.exe -t< setup.txt > eval.txt

This was in the days before gnubg-no-gui existed, so I had to use the -t 
switch. I also remember that it was very sensitive to the spaces around the < & 
> signs.

Hope this helps.
