Hi Strife....the term is "deprecated", not "depreciated". See "Deprecation" in Wikipedia -- Rob Linden 16:37, 27 January 2007 (PST)

I was wondering about that. I'll change the template (it's handled in the template).Strife Onizuka 16:42, 27 January 2007 (PST)

I'm still learning the ins and outs of MediaWiki, so these templates are moving along.Strife Onizuka 17:25, 27 January 2007 (PST)

Excellent work on the templates. The pages look really good! -- Rob Linden 18:38, 27 January 2007 (PST)

It's amazing what can be done with good documentation. MediaWiki is gold (just wish it was 1.9.x).

I was considering making some generic templates for function definition pages. Hasn't happened yet. And still have to make the templates for events.

And I made a bit of a mess of the Template namespace (you can delete the redirecting pages). Getting out of the habit of using CamelCase is tough ~_~ Strife Onizuka 18:59, 27 January 2007 (PST)

Great to see your contributions, Strife. Thanx for building up this resource. --Torley Linden 14:25, 30 January 2007 (PST)

Template magic needed

Hi Strife: great work on the wiki so far. When you get a chance, could you take a look at Template:LSL conformance test and Template:LSL conformance script, which were created for adding our conformance suite? See LSL llGetUnixTime test for an example. I'm mainly looking for help making sure that the interface is sensible (i.e. the template parameter list makes sense and the general structure makes sense). The formatting can wait. The idea is to get these stabilized, and that will provide us a mechanism for those of us at LL to consolidate our tests, and for the community to chip in if desired. -- Rob Linden 22:46, 7 February 2007 (PST)

Looks good so far. I can't think of any more sections that need to be added. Adding sections is easy, the trouble comes up when you want to reorganize them. Another thought wouldn't it be better if the page was 'FunctionName/test' instead of 'FunctionName test'? I'll work something into the function page template so it links to a test script if it exists (pretty sure this can be done). Also should be a category for the test scripts.

I must say I really like the box format used on the function & event pages, maybe use it here too? It works well enough with sections. Strife Onizuka 02:02, 8 February 2007 (PST)

I updated the template to follow the "look-n-feel" of those templates to match the rest of the function / event templates.

<.< I came to like the new look. The boxes don't work so well when nested. Looks a bit busy. But then you can't tell the scopes to well with the large spread. Stuck between a rock and a hard place. Unrelated to this, I've done layouts for flow control. At the point in the day when I'm inclined to sit back and let pendulum swing a bit before I play with it anymore.

function & generic template

Are you planning on putting something in your templates for constants used by that function or event? Anthony Reisman

There is, just set 'constants' equal to a table. Checkout llDetectedType. Strife Onizuka 13:24, 8 February 2007 (PST)
