I've got a lucene search going, and I'm just listing the files in the html and xml, but by name only…but where do I get info on the properties which exist in the properties object? <#list nodes as child> ${child.properties.name} </#list>Is there a good place to go that lists

Here you can take a look at the Javascript API to see in which ways you can retrieve properties (localName,prefix and localName, namespace+localName):

And you can see all the default properties in the standard Alfresco content model here:

Hope this helps.

Thank you, those are handy

Is there by chance a way to write webscripts via a console so I dont have to keep checking them in and run my json\xml get, then try and debug whats wrong that way?

You can put your custom webscripts in this space Company Home -> Data Dictionary -> Web Scripts Extensions.
Then you can add and edit inline in the Alfresco Explorer your custom webscripts without restarting Alfresco.
Remember that you need to use the Refresh WebScripts button in the Alfresco WebScripts servlet:

http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/‍

Hope this helps.
