Look for the scripting and javascript pdf files installed with Photoshop on your system.

Here's one web page, of many, that discusses it:

Hi,

thankx.
I already managed it out .
For all who are interested:
* To make the debugger appear at the start of the javascript program, put a '$.level=2;' line at the start of the javascript file. * Or at a line, where you want the debugger to appear, put a 'debugger;' command into the line.
* Although there is a '//@include' command, i would put all source code into one file,
as the debugger currently has problems with tracing to a function in another file (there is a '//@show include;' command, but it makes some troubles at my program..)
* Write a generic 'Object.toString()' method to inspect objects at the command line.
* Don't put a 'debugger;' command into window-callback functions. * Watch out for the 'ScriptListener' - very useful tool. * There is a tool for generating windows resource strings - see http://www.jkozniewski.com/tools/csuib.html
