Use the Editor
The Script Editor and XSLT Editor share most of the same commands and functions. You can
open the Script Editor using the Open Editor button both from the Run Script Properties
dialog box and from the Open XSLT Properties dialog box. When you do so, the script
currently displayed in the dialog box is pasted to the editor’s scripting box.
For information on the available editor options, refer to "Editor Options" on page723.
