[Opensim-users] Script Engine Messages

[Edmund Edgar]

Hi Ai.

We had this with a lot of the sloodle scripts - the problem was that
they had a comment in the first line that OpenSim would interpret as
telling it the script engine. I think anything looking like this will
set it off:

// This is a comment: It's nothing to do with the script engine but
OpenSim thinks it is.

Replacing that with just two slashes then a line return seems to fix it.

In our case we had a lot of scripts with comments that it choked on,
so I fixed them by exporting the whole thing as an iar, untarring it,
running the following, retarring it and importing it back:

find * -name '*.lsl' -exec sh -c "if ! grep -q \"The line above
should\" {}; then mv {} {}.tmp; echo \"//\n// The line above should be
left blank to avoid script errors in OpenSim.\n\" >> {}; cat {}.tmp >>
{}; rm {}.tmp; fi" \;
