As long as there are variables referencing an unnamed script, the script can be accessed through those
variables. When all variables that reference an unnamed script are removed, the script will be removed from the
run-time environment.
If the new name is the same as a name that is already used for another script, the name of the other script is set
to an empty string, and that script becomes unnamed.
NOTE
Changing the name of a script does not change the name of any variables that reference that script.
The variables will still reference the script, but the names of the script and variables may not match.
Example: Create a new script with no name and then rename it
test7 = script.new("display.clear() display.settext('Hello from my test')", "")
test7()
print(test7.name)
test7.name = "test7"
print(test7.name)
test7.save()
Use
script.new()
to create a script with no name, and then run the script.
Name the script "
test7
", and then save the script in nonvolatile memory.
