I have implemented a scriptifier utility script if you are interested here https://github.com/livecode/livecode/pull/5600 <https://github.com/livecode/livecode/pull/5600> It parses all objects in a stack looking for non-trivial scripts then generates a unique name based on object hierarchy and saves the script only stacks in a folder with the same name as the stack filename and sets the stackFiles appropriately. We have used it on some stacks in the IDE (the installer and the IDE startup stack) and have only found one side effect so far in an old script that used idle. Idle is only sent to objects that implement it and is not detected in their behaviors. For simplicity the script ignores any objects that already have behaviors as if you want a behavior hierarchy of script only stacks you need to script that when they are loaded. > > It this bad practice?

The behavior button scriipt will be exported and the hierarchy will be established. We haven’t noticed any issues with this although it probably wouldn’t take long to tweak the scriptifier to delete the button and set the behavior directly that would impact resource resolution like finding icons so it’s better to leave it in place. Such things are better done manually if necessary.
