Class prepared for January WoL.
 
While the listen event might be laggy, prims within a build should communicate more directly.
 
We will learn about the way to communicate messages within an object that is linked from several parts (llMessageLinked function and link_message event). Our build will be a shoutbox that can be installed as a HUD and will help you to shout your messages.
 
You should be able to build, texture and edit a box, link objects and understand end edit simple scripts. That is, where we will start from.
