If so, wouldn't it be better adding a filter not to show those
unsupported scripts somehow?

I'm not sure these magic numbers are enough.

It should be:

if (num > 0) {

since the find_scripts() can return -1.

What if the len is larger than sline[].line?

I think you need this too:

if (nr_entries >= MAX_LINES)
break;

No pclose(fp) ?

I guess you want _PERF_UI_BROWSER_SCRIPT_H_ ?
