Setting Scripting Options

Browser and Server scripts are created in the Script Editor embedded in Siebel Tools. For more information on the Script Editor, see Siebel Script Editors. You can set various options for working in the Script Editor, including setting a default scripting language, specifying a location for compiling browser scripts, and defining options for debugging.

NOTE:  The Script Assist settings are available only if you have the ST eScript Engine enabled. See About the ST eScript Engine for more information.
