==Detail==

Well anyways this needs to be more detailed??? I thought it woul be like a programming tutorial.{{<small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Aceofspades1217|Aceofspades1217]] ([[User talk:Aceofspades1217|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Aceofspades1217|contribs]]) 01:38, 22 August 2006}}</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->

:Read [[WP:NOT]] wikipedia is not a how to guide. The Lindens already have a Scripting language wiki that covers the how to.--[[User:Crossmr|Crossmr]] 02:24, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

:A little more detail isn't a problem, as long as it doesn't turn into a how-to. As far as when mono is coming, I've no idea, maybe check their forums or wiki?--[[User:Crossmr|Crossmr]] 17:26, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

UnderstoodI understand that Wiki is not a How-to-Guide, however there was previously an excellent summary of information pertinent to LSL design that I found *EXTREMELY* helpful as a new LSL instructor which helped me to better understand LSL structure and design to explain it to my students. That information was deleted in bulk by the same user who included the erroneous information about Hello, Avatar talking "on rez", so I've corrected teh erroneous information, cleaned up the grammar a bit, added citations and returned the simplest form of that design description to the wiki, as I feel this is crucial and *basic*, general information about this programming language. It's the kind of info that new programmers are looking for when checking on a language in the wiki, and is consistent with the level of information given about other programming languages on wikipedia. When I have the time, which I do not today, I'll try and revisit it and flesh things out a bit more, again, to be consistent with the way that other programming informations are described on wikipedia, and try to add a little development history (I'll have to dig that info up from a lecture.)

== state_entry not triggered by rezzing an object ==

I also corrected this erroneous statement. Hello, Avatar is not triggered on rez. Triggering an event on rez requires the on_rez event. Hello, Avatar is triggered on state_entry... i.e., whenever the script enters the state in which the event resides, in this case the default state. Since this particular state entry is inside the default state, it triggers when the script is saved, initialized or reset, so I altered the wording to reflect that while trying not to get too detailed. The idea that state_entry triggers on rez is a common error which is even propogated by some scripting teachers in LSL, but if you review the LSL Portal wiki or if you test it yourself in SL you'll see this is not true.
