	First Blood
	-----------
		You need to get your hands dirty: execute a print command either in the Script Shell or by executing a file using a Run Configuration.
		
		Goal:
			scriptListener.script.contains("print(.*)")
			-> consoleListener.getOutput().contains(".+")
		
		Reward:
			scripting: 10xp


	Create and execute a script file
	--------------------------------
		Create a script file in your workspace and execute it via a launch configuration.
		
		Goal:
			resourceListener.creation().type(File).name(".*.js")
			|| resourceListener.creation().type(File).name(".*.py")
			-> launchListener.type(org.elcipse.ease.launch).launchType(debug)
			
		Reward:
			scripting: 30xp
			
		requires:
			First Blood
			

	Create a project via Scripting
	------------------------------
		Scripting modules provide simple accessors for complex functionality. The Resources module allows to create workspace resources with simple commands.
		
		Goal:
			scriptListener.script.contains("createProject(.*)")
			-> resourceListener.getCreatedElements().contains(IProject.class)
		
		Reward:
			scripting: 40xp

		requires:
			First Blood
			
			
	Split scripts to multiple files
	-------------------------------
		Scripts may include other scripts. This allows to create script libraries and to segment your code for improved readability and maintainability.
		
		Goal:
			scriptListener.script.contains("include(.*)")

		Reward:
			scripting: 20xp

		requires:
			First Blood


	Access Java classes
	-------------------
		Scripts may directly access Java classes and its methods. You may mix this code with your scripts code. To complete this task, create a new java.io.File object and query its exists() method.
		
		Goal:
			scriptListener.script.contains("java.io.File(.*)")
			-> scriptListener.script.contains("exists()")

		Reward:
			scripting: 40xp

		requires:
			First Blood
			
			
	Load external java classes
	--------------------------
		Scripts allow to access external java archives. Load a jar file of your choice into your script interpreter to be able to access its classes.
		
		Goal:
			scriptListener.script.contains("loadJar(.*)")

		Reward:
			scripting: 60xp

		requires:
			Access Java classes
			Split scripts to multiple files
			
	
	Debug a script
	--------------
		Run a debug session on a script. Use the step over functionality to execute line by line.
		
		Goal: 
			launchListener.type(org.elcipse.ease.launch).launchType(debug)
			-> commandListener.command("stepOver")
				|| commandListener.command("stepResume")
				|| commandListener.command("stepInto")
				
		Reward:
			Scripting: 40xp
			Debugging: 40xp
			
		requires:
			Create and execute a script file
			
			
	Create a workspace script
	-------------------------
		Create some scripts in your workspace and register their root folder as script location. Then execute one of your scripts from the script shell view.
		
		Gaol:
			scriptingService.addScript().name(".*")
			-> scriptService.execution().location("scripts://.*")
			
		Reward:
			Scripting 100xp
			Productivity: 40xp
			
		requires:
			Create and execute a script file
	
	
	Bind a script to a toolbar
	--------------------------

		Goal:
		scriptingService.keyword("toolbar").content("Project Explorer")
		
		Reward:
			Scripting: 100xp
			Productivity: 80xp
			
		requires:
