On the main SL page, go to 'my account' then my land. You should be able to find it there and follow the link to teleport to it via SLurl.

and the second makes prims cast shadows I think. Not sure

Only works for mainland though. The parcel I own on an estate doesn't show. Still good to know.

Q: What is STATUS_CAST_SHADOWS?

A: STATUS_CAST_SHADOWS is an object status flag. There was a time when objects were going to cast shadows. Having the object cast a shadow was supposed to be optional. The actual reasons for abandonment have never been asked but it is safe to assume it has to do with the introduction of hardware lighting. Calculating the shadows for N objects with X light sources would have likely ended up being an N*X operation, takes no major stretch of the imagination to say that it would have been impossible to calculate in real time. By the time they realized this the constant had already been added to LSL. The reason you find it in the documentation is so that the LSL documentation can be complete in every way. Just don't ask what "print" does.

My parcel on an estate shows up, too.

The "My Account" webpage shows its size as "0;" I assume that has something to do with not owing tier to LL. World > My Land shows the size accurately.

I'm so glad you asked, it outputs the parameter to printf (stdout or console) which isn't viewable by the user.
