Thanks

Thank you. However, after changing the Language preference to Groovy, the editor highlighted the script with the white background, which became very difficult to read.
I reverted back the language preference of the editor to Java.

https://gist.github.com/sparrowt/ced1eac10318e4b9deeedbcb12d65d36 is a modified version of this with the following changes:

• for use with a dark theme (mine is based on 'Mono Industrial')
• incorporates the multi-line string improvements mentioned in comments above

Thanks!

Thanks!
