I would like to develop an userdefined script editor, which offers some
additional features. Therefor I've to find the place in the systembooks,
where the script of any object is shown (e.g. rightbuttondown in authormode
+ button "Script"). Any solutions or supposes?

Do you mean something like having a button and a text field on the page and
the script in the button is

to handle buttonClick
text of field "foo" = script of object "foo"
-- object being anything you want
end

This will display your script in a text field. You can expand on that, I
have made a script editor for Assistant before Instructor 7.1 was
available. It was to give us the ability to change a script once the book
was open and save in 7.

Hope this help.

Well, actually I need more than only the script of an object. I like to have
my own
script editor with color syntax highlighting and some other features. So I
need a viewer or something like this with a menubar, buttons etc... And this
viewer should appear and act in the same way like the old script delivered
editor. I think I've to find the original handler in the systembooks...

Any ideas?

Hi there:

Just to let you know, i am already have one under development, i hope it
will be done in 1 month time. You are welcome to develope one too, i
welcome the competition.n Or we can do it together. If you are interested,
email me privately.

I have all those you talk about, as well as multi editor window, able to
show all or just one handler of any object, automatic script writer to
certain extend, and many more features. Most are already in place. I am at
the moment thinking of how to do a flow chart to indicate how one handler
of any object will flow in the book, what other objects it will affect etc.

You will see this editor in my Toolbook Developers Netwrok website
mentioned already. No beta download available, as this will be for sell
later.

Hi Gudrun

You could use getobjectlist(this book,"", TRUE) to get all objects with
script in a book,
and then combine this with what Jocelyn suggests.

BTW: "I think" the script editor is placed in a DLL called TB60EDT.DLL.
I base this asumption on Article #4251 in the KB.
So I think it'll be hard to edit it...probably very deliberate:-)
