Description

Currently in the Fiji script editor, when you create a new script you get a blank file. One way we might consolidate some of the repetitive templates by having "New" return a simple "Hello World" like template that a user can modify or just delete. This might be annoying so maybe we don't want to do this or perhaps would make it opt out?

Research direction

Start in the Fiji script editor's New action and inspect how a new script is initialized. Decide whether the default Hello World template should be applied universally or made optional, then verify that creating a new script shows the agreed template and that users can modify or delete it.
