Details
The name parameter is the name that is added to the script.user.scripts table. If name is not
given, an empty string is used, and the script is unnamed. If the name already exists in
script.user.scripts, the existing script's name attribute is set to an empty string before it is
replaced by the new script.
Note that name is the value that is used for the instrument front panel display. If this value is not
defined, the script is not available from the front panel.
You must save the new script into nonvolatile memory to keep it when the instrument is turned off.
The script is run automatically immediately after it is created.
This command is the same as the script.new() function except that the script is automatically run.
