source code

describeSearchResult(self, node)

source code

makeScriptMethodCall(self, isRecursive)
Method to generate a string containing a (hopefully) readable search method call on a node (to be used when generating Python source code in the event recorder)

source code

makeScriptVariableName(self)
Method to generate a string containing a (hopefully) readable name for a Node instance variable that would be the result of a search on this predicate (to be used when generating Python source code in the event recorder).
