Dear Bert,

your confusion is understandable.

1. Yes (statement 2) the central concept IS that you CAN invoke squeak 
from the command line if you want to.
2. But (Statement 1) With 'auto-build' YOU do not do the invoking.

You edit the wiki, you change the page 'Make 391', the rss watching 
process picks up the change, automatically (hence the name 'auto-build') 
runs the script Make(any)-action, and Make(any)-action invokes squeak 
from the command line with the parameters listed in that page on the 
wiki. You pick up your finished image from the web server, together with 
any test reports generated on the way.
