A large amount of functionality is available in command line modules for processing images and models.  Some applications would like to use several modules together in a workflow or as a background processing task.
 
 
 
== Implementation Example ==
 
 
 
This example shows calling the Model Maker (from the Editor).  This example is in Tcl, but the same API can be used from C++ or Python.  The idea is to query for the Model Maker module (and bail out if it is not loaded).  Then to create a MRMLNode with the parameters you want for the model maker.  These would be the same parameters you would set interactively.  The model maker logic and gui classes are then told about the node and told to start processing.  The processing then goes on in the background.
