Preference | Use a word writer software to write a script. Windows's Notepad. | Use a text editor software to write a script. Notepad++. | Use a word coding software to write a script. Visual Studio Code. |
Example | if (_this) then { player setDamage 1; hint "omae ha mou shindeiru"; } else { hint "it's alive!" }; |
if (_this) then { player setDamage 1; hint "omae ha mou shindeiru"; } else { hint "it's alive!" }; |

Why | At least a monospace font and it tells which line/which length you're editing. | Having syntax highlight makes your life easier. |
