I guess this is the kind of things you should ask your system
administrator.

I think I've read such things on Unix systems (incl. MacOS X, Linux and
BSD). I think it hsould work on Windows but ?..

You can set execute rights and not read nor write: --X.

And AFAIK, you can create a user account for Scilab,
and give it RWX rights on the script file,
whereas the logged user does not have any rights on it.

However, I guess you should only give the rights to a non-console 
Scilab, otherwise there would be escape solutions, such as loading
the script with the Scilab console/editor to display it.

Then :
I don't know if there is a non-console Scilab,
and if there is, if it does not switch to console mode when an error 
occurs or when you press CTRL+C.
