Window Scripts
Window script files are the foundation of the Toolkit windowing system. Script files contain commands that create general windows, input windows, menu columns and so forth. A script file is a text file, so it can be written in any text editor. The Script utility is used to compile window script files. (They can also be compiled using Composer or Proto.)
