    Yes. It is quite possible.

    Start with the Allegro Design Entry HDL Skill Reference manual: <install folder>\doc\conceptsk\conceptsk.pdf

    Unlike Allegro Skill, you need to run a separate console to run Skill in Concept. It communicates with Concept using Inter-Process Communications. This should all be in the manual. I have a small script that contains the following:

    mpsdeclare pcskill

    mpstool=cdscnCmndsServer

    mpsruncommand="cnskill -i -nongraph"

    ;

    pcskill

    I run this to start Skill. The first command that you will then need is: handle = cnmpsImport()
