{{ProTip|The scripts for Skyrim are just text files that live in your data directory before they get compiled into bytecode. This means that if you've got a favorite text editor, you can use it to work on scripts. We've included setups for both [[Sublime Text Setup|Sublime Text]] and [[Notepad++ Setup|Notepad++]] that provide syntax highlighting, some basic autocompletion, and compilation shortcuts. If you're going to get heavily into scripting, these tools can make your life a lot easier.}}
