Editor - Appearance may change depending on version and OS.
The management window opens, initially on the Script panel, listing all scripts existing on the selected device and allowing the user to rename or enable/disable them. The following operations can also be performed from here:
  • Run / Stop;
  • Delete;
  • Creation;
  • Edit (thanks to a simple text editor);
  • Download and upload;
  • Scripts restore from backup files (simply upload a backup file and choose the script to be restored on the selected position).
You can observe the output of the scripts on the log window which can be opened concurrently. The scripts log level is below 0 (error) therefore, for this purpose, I recommend setting the log level to 0.

Editor
The editor window is split into two parts; in the upper part there is the actual editor, in the lower part there are the logs relating to the script running; The results of any print statements and error messages appear there. From the editor, using the toolbar buttons, you can upload the script to the device and run it or save/load the script from the local disk.
Many of the functions associated to the toolbar buttons can be activated with key combinations:
  • cut, copy, paste, undo and redo are associated respectively, as normally happens, with ctrl-X, ctrl-C, ctrl-V, ctrl-Z, ctrl-Y;
  • find/replace is associated with ctrl-F;
  • comment/uncomment is associated with ctrl-/ or ctrl-shift-7 (depends on the keyboard layout).
