JavaScript Enhancements

Everywhere you edit scripts in the Configuration Editor, you will get a text editor, enhanced specifically for editing JavaScript code.

This editor provides code completion, syntax coloring as well as marking syntactical errors.

Some of the enhancements are:

• Code Completion
• Syntax Coloring
• Syntax Checking
• Local Evaluation
• External Editors

• Code Completion
  The JavaScript editor supports code completion.
• Syntax Coloring
  
• Syntax Checking
  As you type, the editor performs syntax checking on the script in the background. When you have errors in the script, it shows the error in the margins and the text will get a red squiggle under it to mark where the JavaScript interpreter found an error.
• Local Evaluation
  
• External Editors
  We can edit the script in your favorite JavaScript editor using the context menu.
