Toggle on/off all Symmetry modifiers in a scene (script request)

Hi, so I would like to have the ability to turn ON/OFF all of "Symmetry" modifiers present in a scene. Kind of like "NURMS Toggle All" works acts as a toggle for all editable polys' nurms:

Any chance someone can make a basic script? Would be great as I like working in and out of symmetry as well as subD.

Here you go.  The following script will toggle the symmetry modifier on and off for all objects in the scene as you requested:

 

for i in (getclassinstances symmetry) do i.enabled = not i.enabled

 

Run it from the Listener or drag it to a toolbar for convenience if you like.
