[Jprogramming] in script file, how to tell if line is top level?

['Pascal Jasmin' via Programming]

I believe this approach is exposed in qt.ijs, as ismultiline function.  It doesn't handle all cases, as shown by ctrl-R and ctrl-return

for example,

V =: (3 :)

0 V
+: y
)



F =: 0 : 0 , 0 : 0
asdf
)
zxcv
)

For syntax coloring, it scans from the beginning and search
matching 3 : 0 (or other equivalents) and a line without only
the token ) .
