Rename a script
You can rename a script. You might want to rename a script if you need to name another script the
same name as the existing script. You could also rename an existing script to be the autoexec script.
To change the name of a script, use the command:
scriptVar.name = "renamedScript"
Where:
scriptVar
"renamedScript"
After changing the name, you need to save the original script to save the change to the name
attribute.
For example:
beepTwoSec.name = "beep2sec"
beepTwoSec.save()
Run the beep2sec script using the following command:
script.user.scripts.beep2sec()
6-42
