Reading a script file without using io? [closed]

This question already has an answer here:

How do I get the number of lines from a script source?

Since ROBLOX seems to have disabled the io functionality (it may be on my side not sure), is there a way to read what is inside a script? A close example would be this. It is from the Falcon Scripting Plugin in case you were wondering. I have looked through its source code, but I couldn't puzzel it out. I even looked through the ROBOX Wiki but all I could find was this

So let me get this straight. You want to be able to create scripts while in-game? You would need to use loadstring, which by default is disabled in ServerScriptService, and will not work at all in LocalScripts. M39a9am3R 3210 — 8y

Why would you need `io` to read things that in the ROBLOX game? They aren't files... BlueTaslem 18071 — 8y
