Hi,

you can read the build in help in quartus

1) by File menu > New... > Design Files > Tcl script

or you can use a text editor

2) To run your script, go to View menu > Utility windows > Tcl concole... then type source your_script.tcl if your_script.tcl is in the project directory (there are other command line... with "quartus_sh" for example)

At doulos.com, there are also few well explained examples.
