function returns an iterator that can be used in a for loop to
iterate over all the factory scripts.

Modifying a factory script
Retrieving a factory script listing
The script listing for a factory script can be retrieved and modified. However, it cannot be saved as
a factory script. The modified script can be saved as a user script using the same name or a new
name.
NOTE An imported factory script can only be loaded back into the Series
2600A as a user script.
The following function retrieves a script listing. The script chunk is returned, along with the shell
keywords (
loadscript
or
loadandrunscript
, and
endscript
):
script.factory.scripts.name.list()
where:
name
is the name of the factory script.
Example:
Retrieve the script listing for a factory script named “KIPulse”:
script.factory.scripts.KIPulse.list()
