I like using Altium script, but is there a way to list all errors at once (like all the undeclared identifier errors) ? It looks like DelphiScript could be much better if Altium could list all these kind of errors by running a "Validate project" tool instead of finding them one at a time by running the script again and again.
Great showcase of using ChatGPT with Altium BTW!

Feeding ChatGPT garbage into Altium results in the scripting engine just shutting down, not even executing a ShowMessage('Hello world!'); anymore. On the next start, Altium crashes with access violations in EditScript.dll on opening the .pas file. Now that's promising... (the 7:37 face pretty much sums it up)

Cool, you know the port could generate port cross reference, which is very convienient, but the netlabel doesn't have that funtion, could it be implented by script?I mean the script will automaticly generate text that follows the netlabel with the format "page number[location]'.Thank you!
