The Spellscript IDE (i.e. Interactive Development Environment) is a code editor for Spellscript introduced in H/M version 0.6.4. It features syntax-highlighting and an increasing number of keyboard shortcuts to make script creation much easier than it would be in a normal text editor.
When an object in Minecraft is capable of being scripted via the Spellscript IDE, we refer to that object as a scriptable. For now, this includes Spellscript-Blocks and scripts schedulable on the server (by default, schedulable server scripts can be created by pressing tilde).
