About Script Editor
All WiseScript products contain the Script Editor scripting environment. The Script Editor
scripting environment consolidates numerous lines of code into predefined script
actions. You don’t need to memorize commands because Script Editor supports a point-
and-click method of scripting. The script you create is displayed in clear, English-like
statements. You compile the script, along with files and other resources, into an .EXE.
When the .EXE is run, the script runs, executing the actions that are specified in the
script.
The Script Editor Window
The Script Editor window contains all the tools necessary to develop and edit
WiseScripts. To access Script Editor, click Script Editor at the lower left of the main
window.
