Warning: general but opinionated runon sentences next If you found the means by which you implemented your project from within the running application to be satisfactory, but tedious, due to the fact you merely repeated the same actions, with only slight changes to specific values, then it would appear that the process is open to some form of "templating" or automation. If such is the case, from my understanding, the purpose of python "scripting" is to assist you in speeding up and/or reducing required effort for the process. Then again, you may consider the possibility, that the application itself, which is designed with a specific solution in mind (+- gimmicks), may not necessarily provide the best means by which to complete a required task, and alternates should be explored.

(perhaps we may assume that this is painfully obvious)
When obtaining the full implementation from the main python resource location, it may be possible to obtain and/or utilize the IDLE tool, which is a fairly useful program designed with python source editing in mind.

With installation ver 2.2.2, which is not necessarily known to be fully supported by the most recent poser implementation, an included IDLE might be found in the installation tools subdirectory.

If such is yet unavailable, or scarcely available, or barely obtainable, I may make an attempt at implementing solutions to the following reoccuring problems:

customized automatic figure(character/geom) recreation from "static", "character-specific" morphs, w/ retention of "dynamic", "actionable" morphs;
quick configurable smart-poly (lod) reduction;
reasonable partially-complete solution to unacceptable directory structure mishandling;

Any advice, suggestions, criticisms, sources, or other submissions may be welcome.

note: dehitch, freeware in java, which smart scans a given prop, character, hand, hair, etc., file, and returns an editable external reference list, is partially complete...(user options for portion which recursively searches and/or modifies external reference paths for dependant files, in selected directories are somewhat undef)
