function autoAssemble(AutoAssemblerScript, TargetSelf OPTIONAL, DisableInfo OPTIONAL) : nil,errorstring - boolean, table

function autoAssemble(AutoAssemblerScript, DisableInfo OPTIONAL) : nil,errorstring - boolean, table

runs the auto assembler with the given text. Returns true on success, with as secondary a table you can use when disabling (if TargetSelf is set it will assemble into Cheat Engine itself). If DisableInfo is provided the [Disable] section will be handled.

Tip: Use '[[ ]]' or '[==[ ]==]' quotes for multiline script.
