That's a given, never fool around with the original file in the exec directory. I like the fact that that some js files now use the modopts.ini for some of the changes we used to do to the file itself, but my mods directory seems to still have a lot of files in it.  

I love VS Code, but I've found out that it does alter the code sometimes if you use Ctrl-A codes in it, so you have to watch it. Notepad ++ doesn't change the contents of the file automaticly the way VS Code has done on occasion to me.

 Tr> Keeping the JS Object model docs open is also really helpful.

Yes, it my stage of learning, the JS Object Model is my bible.
