We generate scripts in text format, and then manually copy-paste them
into script editor, so that formatting happens and syntax is checked.

The scripts tend to go really big. When the file size reaches around
400K, script editor stops formatting the scripts.

You're likely hitting one of the AppleScript language's internal limits.

Any suggestions?

Write a better code generator that produces more concise output / avoid using code generation in the first place / use another language that doesn't have such limitations.


For more specific suggestions, provide more details about what your code generator needs to do and examples of its input and output.
