Batch Enfuse Script for Bridge?

Hi there - I'm looking for an batch enfuse script for Bridge.  So far I have found a single script built to invoke enfuse in Bridge (CS3) which could be a good starting point, but I have no experience with scripting and would appreciate any help anyone can give to point me in the right direction.  Here's the script: http://dimview.org/phototips/BridgeEnfuse.jsx‌   There's also a script I found for bringing stacks into Photoshop that I might be able to combine with the enfuse script? - Would like to automate open stacks as layers + run action. Possible with script??

What I'd like to do is be able to open the BridgeEnfuse.jsx script in Bridge CC if nothing else, but hopefully build in the ability to batch enfuse every X number of images in Bridge, or batch enfuse stacks of images in Bridge.  I will be doing some experimenting and will try to post back with my findings.  Any direction for how to update oldBridge CS3 scripts to Bridge CC would be really helpful!

I've taken a different turn here, and moved to Lightroom's "Merge to HDR..." function with AHK scripting to allow the user to enter # of brackets and # of stacks.  The script then emulates a "Stack every X images" (which Lightroom lacks at the time of posting), and then "Merge to HDR's" the newly created stacks in batches of 25 every 15 minutes.

Update - Unfortunately, recent updates to Lightroom have significantly slowed the Merge to HDR process, and no longer allow for more than 5 stacks to queued for merging at the same time.  Only by using a previous version of Lightroom is the ability to batch process with the above method truly effective.
