I agree that this behavior is annoying. It is one of the reasons I don't really trust the editor. Neat that you were able to locate the reason for the bizarre behavior...

One of the things that has annoyed me, on and off, about the script editor is that it will ask me "Do you want to apply the changes ..... [Apply] [ Cancel] [Don't Apply]"

even when I didn't think I had made any changes. Today, it got annoying enough for me to investigate (rather than just curse under my breath and carry on with what I was trying to do).

The revScriptEditor script contains

  if pTheKey is among the items of "65361,65362,65363,65364,65360" then
    -- navigation key, arrow, home, end, change selection
    selectionChanged
    pass rawKeyUp
  end if


Any other key will set the "modified" flag, and force the question to be asked when the script editor is closed.

So it looks to me as though:
1. regardless of what the comment says, the "home" key is in the list, so it doesn't set the flag; the "end" key isn't, so it does set the flag
2. Even "unimportant" keys will set the flag (e.g. Ctl, Alt, etc.)

Am I missing something ? Can ctl or alt affect the content of the script ? is there anything different between home and end keys that would require this to be different ?

I can (probably will) just change it and see what happens - but there are too many key combinations to trust any results from simple testing, so if anyone has answers to these questions it might save me some time.

Thanks,
