It sounds like you're starting in the deep end.
I'm not sure if I understand enough about what you're trying to do.
However, you might consider flipping through the Eclipse FAQs:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/The_Official_Eclipse_FAQs# Implementing_Support_for_Your_Own_Language
The Eclipse Corner Articles may offer some help on specific tasks as
well, but I'm not sure what specifically to point you to.
http://www.eclipse.org/articles
You might also want to take a look at the "Eclipse Monkey" project,
which provides JavaScript scripting inside the running Eclipse workbench.

Well basically I would like to run a script in a special environment.
The script could be edited on-the-fly.
The running could be paused / resumed / stopped.
But I also would like to create a nice interface, like JUnit has for
creating the testsuits.
Well to sum it up, how should I start If I want to create JUnit's testsuit
creator editor, with running capabilities?
Should I start with a forms based editor, on which there are special buttons
(start / pause / resume /stop),
or should it be a launcher - runner somehow equiped with a nice UI ?
I don't know maybe both ways lead to the same destination, or maybe one is
not possible.
For this reason I'm trying to collect information.
So that for example if the second way is not possible, than I shouldn't
start developing on that route.
Or there might be an other, better way to do this, but somehow I couldn't
find good examples, tutorials, articles.

You might consider starting with the JUnit support provided with
Eclipse. Start with the source code for Eclipse itself. In their book,
"Contributing to Eclipse", the authors go through the process of
creating the JUnit support. This might be useful to you.
