The fmIDE 'Name that Thing' API is the way to get to your things in FileMaker. Tell [fmIDE] what thing you want, and, presto, you get taken to it.

You want to see script `Hello World`?

Just name it:

```url
fmp://$/MyFile?script=fmIDE&$script_name=Hello%20World
``` 

```
Perform Script [ by Name: ”fmIDE” ; Parameter: "$script_name=Hello%20World" ]
```
