3. Click Install and select the ZIP file
4. Enable the addon in the list
5. Find it under the N-panel > GH Tools tab

📂 Script Folder

By default, the addon uses an internal folder to store your scripts. You can change this by setting a custom script folder path. All created and launched scripts will use this path.

⚙ Editor Settings

Enable “Use Custom Text Editor” to define an external editor such as Notepad++ or VS Code. Set the full path to the executable in the provided field.

✏️ Creating Scripts

1. Enter a name in the Script Name field
2. Click Create Script
3. A new .py file will be generated in the current folder

🚀 Launching Scripts

Click any script from the list to:

• Run — executes the script in Blender
• Edit — opens it in the assigned editor
• Delete — removes the script file permanently

💾 Saved Settings

GH Script Manager stores settings in two text files:

• config.txt — contains:

UseCustomEditor=false
CustomEditorPath=

• saved_path.txt — stores your selected script folder path

🧼 Script Refresh

If you add or remove files manually in the folder, use the Refresh List button to update the list inside Blender.
