Hey Dark Byte,
How can I obtain the function names?
Like when you edit the form via C.E, and going to event tab, it displays all available functions.
How can I do the same?
I want to obtain it, display in Combo Box for this script

Ce does it by parsing through the lua script looking for " function .... (" and then take the name from that.
In lua i think do this to get ALL the function names that are defined:
Code:

for i,f in pairs(_G) do
  if type(f)=='function' then
    print(i)
  end
end

(you will find it's not that useful)

If we tweak it they way we want, it'll be useful =).
Thanks.
What I want to do is, to create an Listbox, display all the functions user has made (without C.E predefined functions), and let user set for it an hotkey =).
