Hi Richmond,
I don't understand why this is a poblem and why you would try this in
LibreOffice.
put the script of myControl into myScript
replace ")" & break with ")" & cr & "beep" & cr & "break" in myScript
set the script of myControl to myScript
put the result into rslt
if rslt is not empty then
beep
answer error rslt
end if
You could also put the script into a field and write more complex scripts to
edit that script before you set the script of the control.
Actually, in the light of what I have found I can do with Komodo Edit
even that seems cumbersome.

This is a really hard nut to crack:
I have a very long script that features lines that end like this:
& numToChar(2325))
and lines that end like this
& numToChar(2325))
the top example is followed by a line that starts with "set",
and the lower example is followed by "break":
& numToChar(2325))
set
& numToChar(2325))
break
now I want to "mess around with" the lower type of script line and NOT
the upper one.
AS the script contains somewhere over 5000 lines, and about 50 of those sort of
lines
that need to be operated on I don't feel a high level of motivation to go
through
the thing line by line . . .
. . . if I have to I will (the blasted thing is mission critical) . . .
Tried to do the above in LibreOffice and as soon as I pasted the lower
phrase into the search box it turned the thing into
& numToChar(2325)) break
i.e. stripped out the linefeed. Obviously that is no good.
I would be extremely grateful for any constructive help.

and Windows XP and 7 should the need arise ].
