Hi!

You can edit scripts by directly changing the .Source property of the specified script. Keep in mind that .Source is PluginSecurity and can only be changed by Plugins, the command bar, and CoreScripts. Like incapaz said, after editing, calling plugin:OpenScript will open up the script.

local s = someScriptPath
s.Source = "--[[line1\nline2\nline3\n\nline5]]" -- Sets the script source.
plugin:OpenScript(s) -- Opens the script.

I'm just not sure about that --[[line1\nline2\nline3\n\nline5]] BabyDevil285 9 — 5y
