Pretty much, though you may have acquired a couple of more recent ones
from elsewhere.  I did, but backed them up and wiped them off anyway. 
Just in case.  (I'm paranoid like that.)

Should be a section entitled Javascript.  It's one of the boxes there.

I think you can download developer info from www.sasg.com
