Is it the cursor you want to move, or the 'insertion point'?

Does this do what you want?

tell application "AppleScript Editor"
tell document 1
set the selection to insertion point 25
end tell
end tell

Hello.

I can't find a way to move the curser to a given character position in Script Editor. I have only found the character range of the selection-object and that appear to be read only.

I cant anything about gui scripting yet. Is this some how possible with gui-scripting, setting the AXRange, if there is an AX range.
Or do anybody know about some workaround, or the right curses?

Thanks.

Best regards
