Hi Damir - MoI caches script and UI files once they are read to improve performance so that they won't have to be read from disk again.
So it's that feature that you are running into here and right now there isn't any mechanism to turn it off, you will need to exit MoI and relaunch it in order for your new script to be run.
It is possible though to make a script that itself loads another file and executes it, that's probably basically what David did for his framework. To do something like that your script file would load a text file (see the ImportPointFile plug-in from here for an example using some Windows scripting mechanisms: http://kyticka.webzdarma.cz/3d/moi/#ImportPointFile) then once you have it loaded as a string you call the JavaScript exec() function on the string to execute the code inside of it from your own script.
I want to improve things in the future so that MoI would monitor some particular directories for changes to script files and reload them automatically but currently that is not done yet - just in general scripting has not been a major focus area for MoI yet and so there are a lot of things like that which are not refined yet. So basically you'll be working in an underdeveloped and unfinished area here currently.
