There's an incredible number of things you can do through Powershell. If you're that way inclined, the below link is a good resource for anyone wanting to get a grip on the basics. (Windows 10 also has an option in taskbar properties to replace the default Win+X menu option of cmd with Powershell.)

Load the table in the program and enjoy. Flippers are shift keys, coins usually 5, start is 1. I set up the nudging in options (usually Z and / keys and Spacebar for nudge up)

Enjoy, have a great weekend all. Happy tilting!
