I am wondering what is the advantage of using .iso to store the binary
files. I think it might be hard to maintain the (scripts/binary)
files.
is it possible to pass a directory to run_autoit()?

Besides, I think we may use staf framework to send command to MS
Windows
to run autoit scripts, it would be easier to control the status of the
autoit process.

what is your suggestion?

Thank you.
