I tried this inside an instrument config file, but it didn't work.
Would it be possible to implement the ability to include nasal code in 
instrument config files. I know that one can have nasal code for the action 
bindings. What I want is to define some nasal functions that are instrument 
specific.

I've done this with a global nasal script in the Nasal subdirectory, but as 
more instruments use nasal it seems wastefull to have a lot of global nasal 
code that never get used. Example: the KAP140 autopilot control panel uses 
the Nasal/kap140.nas script. AFAIK currently the only aircraft that uses the 
KAP140 is the C172, but still the kap140.nas is executet for every aircraft. 
One could put the kap140.nas in the *set.xml for the aircrafts that use the 
KAP140 instrument, but I believe it would be better to make it instrument 
specific.
