WINDOWS ONLY

Python script to create windows Batch file to launch Nuke renders by command line. It's less memory consuming
Plus some options like :
render "frame by frame" which allows to flush properly the memory for each frame. Some comps (same thing with Eyeon Fusion) tends to increase rendering time all along the process.
"skip existing frame" for deleted bug frames or deleted modified frames to avoid complicated frameranges.

it creates BAT executable files name like : "compName_WriteName_x1x450-525_FrameByFrame"

These scripts are inspired from Tim BOWMAN's "bgNukes" and Jep HILL's "skip existing renders" scripts .
