Clicking Select All on the Edit menu, or using the Ctrl+A shortcut, selects everything in the tab you are editing. For example—while I started Portals at the same time as I began this book, the script is now complete (and out to market). What can I say, I write scripts faster than computer books.

Anyway, we click anywhere in the script (now 110 pages), type Ctrl+A, and all 110 pages are selected (see the following figure). Now we can copy, cut, or delete the entire script. Be careful with this feature, as it's very powerful.
