Same here - in fact the same thing happens to me sometimes using Rev's 
IDE. Occasionally what works is to copy the complete script out of the 
Script Editor and paste it into a text editor. Close the empty Script 
Editor window, which *should* close without complaint. Then reopen the 
Script Editor, copy and paste your script back in and reclose the 
Script Editor. Seems to work most of the time to remove the problem, 
but for how long is anyone's guess.
