You don't want what a Select would produce - too awkward.
Do 'Query SCRIPT * FORMAT=RAW OUTPUTFILE=____'.

The better overall approach to server scripts, which tend to be large and
complex, is to maintain them in OS files where they can be best edited
without the error-prone UPDate SCRipt method, then replace the script in
the server with DELete SCRipt and DEFine SCRipt Script_Name ...File=File_Name.
I've been using that approach for years and find it optimal.
