Seriously? There is no such script on my host system. 
(And with the network down between host and guests I
don't know of a way to get it there.)

Using the App's Virtual Machine menu to select Install
VMware Tools does not actually install them. (Well, it
did in the Windows VM.) Instead what it does is put a
mounted DVD or CD icon on the desktop.

Having no instructions, I had to figure out on my own
by exploring that it's necessary to cd to that disk
image, find the VMware Tools tgz file, copy it to a
writeable work directory, uncompress/untar it, discover
the program vmware-install.pl that it deposited at the
top, and run it. It led me through a lot of questions,
including about wanting to compile some binaries (I
guess they can't cover every architecture with prebuilt
tools), let it compile and run, kick off the config
program (there's a script called vmware-config in the
bin subdirectory), answer more questions including one
about screen resolution (which I guessed right), then
it does its thing and supposedly it's done.

As I said this all worked fine for several days before.

But I know nothing of any command line scripts to run
from the host, nor can I find one.

I'd be happy to try that, given that my VMs are all in
a hosed state right now, if I only knew where to find
what I need.
