the script - The ugly details of what I am trying to do.

[K]

The editScript message is a after the fact process. I need to munge the script prior to it being set. Since the script with my macros is not necessarily valid and may encounter several if a multitude of errors. I was wondering if I could place a setProp/getProp handler in the front scripts to intercept the script upon storage and retrieval. This would allow me to expand/collapse the code.

Parser Expand and Callopse are a implementation of the GOLD parser with
whatever syntax table you would like to use.


function parserExpand aScript

--
--Do Something
--

return tExpanded

end parserExpand

function parserCollapse aScript

--
--Do Something
--

return tCallapsed

end parserCollapse

setProp script aScript
--
--Now here is the real problem will the call to set the script
--go to the appropriate object since this is a front script?
--
set the script to parserExpand( aScript )

end script

getProp script
     

--
--Now here is the real problem will the call to set the script
--go to the appropriate object since this is a front script?
--
put the script into tScript

return parserCollapse( tScript ) 

end script
