Script Central - Subroutines Tab

For viewing and editing subroutines and procs.  See also Script Central Tabs.

This tab shows all the text files located in your TP Scripts folder and subfolders, whether or not they are used by the current layout.  If you want to prevent a file in that folder from appearing in this list, rename it to start with underscore, e.g., "_hiddenfile.txt".

Also shown in the list are any procs defined in code which has been processed by the layout.  Usually procs are defined in the master script, and are processed automatically on layout open, so they appear in the list in this tab.
