oh please, oh please, oh please add a function to load a file from HD in to the script editor - the built in editor is way too limited to do any timely devel / test cycle, and the cut/paste solution doesn't work too well for some of us (i prefer to edit over on the unix side .. cut / paste is possible but cumbersome)

not being able to directly import textures and models and such is understandable, but i wouldn't think adding a load file option to the script editor would present much difficulty?

Someone should make an external compiler.

I've played around with the idea of writing a GCC backend to emit LSL "assembly" instructions, but without knowing the bytecode and virtual machine details, that's not possible.

yeah .. i was thinking about implementing it in parrot or writing an emulator in perl, but that doesn't do a thing for getting the script in to the world environment without cut and paste

.. i'm perfectly happy letting the client or server do the compilation - its just the built-in editor that i object to (no way to search for text / replace, etc .. just no good .. unless i just don't know how to do that)
