# scriptInit()

Readies scripting by setting up the needed environment and starting the script server as needed. NOTE that this must be run at least once before any scripting or usage of objects that depend upon scripting.

### Syntax

o_scriptInit()
  no inputs
  return: Text - confirmation that scripting is ready.

### Usage

This object needs to run before any scripting is available. Its primary purpose is to make sure that the script server is running. If the server is not running and the server is local then the server is started. If the server is not running and is remote, then the user is notified that it needs to be started.

When selected, the "Set Timeout" option sets the length of inactivity in seconds after which the server will shut down. See Set Shutdown Timeout
