Yes, the trick is to prepend "::"

Use the Edit... button on the right to insert multi-line scripts. Multi-line scripts are always recognized as scripts and do not need to be prepended with ::.

My guess (based on other thread) is that code isn't quite finished yet and will be part of upcoming beta release.

::text report("{name}, {fileversion}<crlf>", 1);

This way you can easily access the same script via UDC menu, Catalog, and shortcut key.

It makes it a little easier to manage things, and if you don't actually want it in the UDC menu you can still hide it while keeping the ability to give it a shortcut key.

Exactly. In the next BETA you can do:

Code: Select all

::text report("{name}, {fileversion}<crlf>", 1);

But this is unofficial secret information. And it will probably only work under XP, not Vista/Win7.
EDIT: {fileversion}, not {version}

Remember that this yet unofficial feature will currently (probably) only work under XP, not Vista/Win7.
