I just checked the state of skins/plone_scripts and it looks there are some low hanging fruits around.
- add_ext_editor.py
- seems completly outdated, I doubt this one is used anywhere
- author_find_content.py
- this is not used on core at any place
- browserDefault.py
- more complex to figure out if this is used as a script, because the name is used in different context
- canSelectDefaultPage.py
- plone.app.content/plone/app/content/browser/templates/select_default_view.pt Products.CMFPlone/Products/CMFPlone/skins/plone_scripts/canSelectDefaultPage.py Products.CMFPlone/Products/CMFPlone/tests/testBrowserDefaultScripts.py Products.CMFPlone/Products/CMFPlone/tests/testPloneView.py
- check_id.py
- various places in AT world
- createMultiColumnList.py
- Products.CMFPlone/Products/CMFPlone/browser/templates/search.pt
- create_query_string.py
- this is not used on core at any place
- date_components_support.py
- Products.Archetypes/Products/Archetypes/browser/templates/calendar_macros.pt
- displayContentsTab.py
- only place this string appears is Products.CMFPlone/Products/CMFPlone/browser/interfaces.py where it is defined on IPlone interface. fishy.
