ExtendScript
A means of extending the GoLive design environment. ExtendScript comprises the Extend Script module
that GoLive supplies in its Modules folder, the JavaScript engine built into the GoLive application, and the
JavaScript API that allows your extensions to access all the major features of GoLive programmatically.
Extend Scripts is the name of the folder that holds extension source files.
