Boxing up scripts?

This should be easy, but I'm having trouble figuring it out....

I want to put a bunch of scripts together in a box for distribution. However, I don't want these scripts to be running. Alas, each time I add a script to the box, it runs, possibly modifying the properties of the box. I don't get a chance to set the script to not running until it's already in, and has already mucked up the box.

How do you put scripts into an object to make a "script library" without those scripts ever running?

Hold <control> while dragging scripts onto the box. You'll get a red outline around the box, and I believe it sets the scripts "not running" when inserted via this method.

Ah-- thanks! That was almost it. Holding CONTROL works as you describe.

It's only by reading things like this that we can find out how it's done or if it's possible.

Is there a manual that describes all keyboard shortcuts or does that also change so often it becomes irrelevant?
