Running a Script

Once a script has been entered into the text area, the script can be run by clicking the run/save button.

Libs

Often times you will want to creata a series of utility functions that will be used in your script. One way to organize this is to place the utility functions in another script, and then mark the script as a library, by checking the lib checkbox. Whenever any other script is run in the desktop, the script marked as lib will be prepended to the script, in order to make their functions available to it.
