The script type is indicated by the icon on the left:

	An interactive shell session.
	A subfolder. The ".." folder indicates the parent folder.
	A subfolder which is part of the Library Path, i.e. is searched for m modules. See also section * (Reference).
	A script.
	A compiled .mex file which can be executed directly, i.e. an "executable". See also section * ().
	A module for use by scripts, shells or other modules.
	A script which is started when the m application is launched with this current directory.
	An executable which is started when the m application is launched.

For a script, executable or interactive session, the icon on the right indicates its state:

	Inactive, without console.
	Stopped, but with a console. Process→Close will make it inactive.
	Running. Process→Stop will stop it.
	Waiting for console input.
	Was running, but produced an error. Open it to see the error message.
