As far as I know, sensor()s can't find Lindens. I had a Linden confirm it when I was trying to set him up as a guest driver on one of my boats. Maybe the example should be changed so it's not misleading? I'm gonna go make sure the [[sensor]]() page mentions that. [[User:Stickman Ingmann|Stickman]] 18:23, 14 August 2008 (PDT) | |||

startswith, endswith
Me or someone should return to contribute correct-at-a-glance versions of the snippets that mean:
startswith(whole, part) -- returns true if whole starts with part, else returns false
endswith(whole, part) -- returns true if whole ends with part, else returns false
cf. http://docs.python.org/lib/string-methods.html

Soooo cool. Someone else did jump in to contribute! Now naturally I look forward to me or someone implementing startswith like we've implemented endswith, and then comparing the space & time costs of the two startswith implementation choices. -- Ppaatt Lynagh 16:21, 16 October 2007 (PDT)
RegEx
Any chance of RegEx in the future?

Lindens
As far as I know, sensor()s can't find Lindens. I had a Linden confirm it when I was trying to set him up as a guest driver on one of my boats. Maybe the example should be changed so it's not misleading? I'm gonna go make sure the sensor() page mentions that. Stickman 18:23, 14 August 2008 (PDT)
