They were introduced in the v6.7 series (6.7.4?), allowing a plain text
file that begins with a specific declaration to be used as stacks.
The declaration is:
script <stackname>
e.g.:
script "revcommonlibrary"
You'll find many of these in your LC folder in
<lcversion>/Toolset/Libraries/
Not only are they useful as libraries, but behaviors have been extended
to allow stacks now as well, so you can use script-only stacks for all
generalized code.
Script-only stacks allow us to design projects in which code is mostly
in plain text files; we still get to enjoy the script editor, but can
also directly integrate our work with workflows based around most common
version control tools, like GitHub, in which UI files can e slender
binaries with little or no code and everything else is plain text.
