is completed.
• Failed - When the script execution fails.
Editor Pane
The Editor pane allows you to:
• Write, edit and run the scripts
• Open, save, import and export the scripts
• Run the entire script or selected lines from the script
• Apply settings to the editor using the Settings window
The Editor pane is an area where you enter code and execute it
immediately. It also allows the execution of a single line of script code,
with the resulting messages printed to the Output pane. For details, refer
to Output Pane on page 548. In addition, the Editor pane has many
features to help you enter, edit and check syntax of the code. Beside this, it
also allows you to use the Microsoft Window’s standard functionally such
as cut, copy, paste, undo and redo operations in the script code.
The following figure shows a simple program written in the Editor pane.
