Execute commands for a build task using a Run Script build phase. For example, you can archive files using tar, send mail, write messages to a log file, execute AppleScript scripts, and so on. Any number of Run Script build phases are allowed in a target.

You can use any of the shell languages available in your system.

To change the title of the run script, click the title and edit the label.
