[Opensim-dev] Adding custom LSL functions

[Mic Bowman]

I just pushed a patch that adds support for both parameters and return
types for key, vector, rotation and lists. That should make modInvoke
"complete". The wiki has been updated with the new test region module and
the script that calls the functions in the module.   I should probably add
a "best known methods" section to the wiki that shows how to combine region
module functions with the dispatch replay method to create async methods as
well.
