-- code length
no, cannot be increased.
Is a buffer lenght restriction (64KB) of the used Jython interpreter.

-- script call for the rest
When running the script from command line, this is the easiest option:

# script1.sikuli
# many lines of code
import os
dir = os.path.dirname(getBundlePath()) # parent folder of script folder
nextSikuli = os.path.join(dir, "script2.sikuli")
setBundlePath(nextSikuli)
execfile(os.path.join(nextSikuli, "script2.py"))

script2.sikuli must be in same folder as script1.sikuli

to get the parent folder in version 1.0.1:
dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(getBundlePath()))

(this is a non-compat-bug and will be fixed in 1.1.0)

This will work in IDE also.

Using execfile() has the advantage over all other possible solutions, that the executed code runs in the context of the main script (all names are known to the executed code).

I think I should implement an include() feature, that handles the sikuli specifics, finds .sikuli scripts on sys.path and uses execfile()

Can you help with this problem?
