Is there a limit to the number of lines a script can contain?  I'm currently editing a script with about 52 lines (including debug code to later be stripped), and the CS refuses to save changes beyond a certain point.  If I click on the save button, and then try to edit the script editor, I get the "do you want to save this script" message; if I say "yes", it just returns me to the editor.  If I say "no", it closes the editor but the changes are not saved.

It _appears_ taht if I put any function below line 39, it causes a problem (endifs and EDNS are fine).  Perhaps I'm just doing something wrong?

Later:  obviously not the case, since I just found a Beth script with about 150 lines.
 
Well, very strange.  Apparently the problem was that I was passing an elseif without a specific parameter:
 
if var==1
  somecode here
 
      else if
        someothercode here
 
This SHOULD be a legal structure, and the compiler didn't seem to dislike it.  BUt as soon as I changed it to
 
if var==1
....
  elseif var!=1
 
 
my saveprob disappeared.  Now to debug the script itself, instead of the CS <G>
