Could you explain a bit more? What text editor?  
Are you saying you can't enter anything in the `function` node?  
are any other nodes giving you problems?  
what version of NR and node.js are you running?  
what platform and OS are you running NR on?

I see you are using Home Assistant, you might want to ask on their forum.
