    Hello fellow ae users.

    I’m new to scripting (and can”t believe how much time I spent doing things that I could actually automate!).
    So here I’m writing a script to initialize my layers to animate them but I would like to call / “manipulate” other script from within my script. I can’t find anything about it.
    I’m thinking about copy/pasting parts of the scripts if there no other mean.

    I’m using cs5.5

    Hope to hear from you guys.
    Nicolas

    You could use

    $.evalFile(path-to-your-other-script)
