Finding external scripts without knowing the name.

In Scriptmaker, when I encounter external scripts that I want to analyze or
debug.  Scriptmaker only shows me the filename that contains the script, but
not the name of the script itself.  Am I missing something here ?  It seems
to me that there might be a more direct "path" to follow.
Thanks,
Carl

Carl,
If you select the script step and click on the 'specify:' menu, a dialog
shows the name of the script. If you print the script, the external
script name is shown.
I made it a habit to show the external script name in a comment line
after the 'perform external' step.

Hans,
I knew that there had to be an easier way.  Also, your advice on using a
comment line is something I will begin doing.
Thank you.
Carl
