Run my own script inside Chrome's debugger console?

I'm tired of re-typing the same commands into Chrome's developer console. Is it possible to load a script that I have saved on my local machine?

As @PaulIrish pointed out in the comments Chrome's Snippets are their solution to this problem. This screenshot below shows were to find snippets within Chrome's developer tools as of this writing. To run a snippet right click on its entry in the snippet pane, pictured on the left, and select "Run":

If you're running developer tools on a file:// URL, you can do something like:

s = document.createElement('script'); 
s.src = 'file://path/to/script.js'; 
document.body.appendChild(s);

As a workaround you could also paste in your oft-repeated code snippet into the developer tools.
