Yes - and it is another syntax allowing to colorize some lines only (perhaps useful in the frame of the script editor):
_internal script colorize line na to nb of field "FScript".
To colorize the whole script : _internal script colorize line nfirst to nlast of field "FScript"
and if you want to colorize one line only, it musst be:
_internal script colorize line na to na of field "FScript" (_internal script colorize line na of field "FScript" gives an error.)
An example of what I call fossil scripts: they could easily be modified to comply whith the usual syntax, but as they work and are "_internal" anyway...
Still thank you to put my nose into Ui stacks !
