The ability to create notecards would absolutely rock.

There is currently no way of creating data in a script and then storing that data independent of the script.

This would be incredibly useful in a huge amount of projects.

You can create a notecard. Look at your inventory, there is a place to create a new script, note, or folder (I think) up at the top. Just copy and paste the portion of the script you want to save for later into a new note.

No, I mean create a notecard programmatically.

There is currently no way to programmatically create and store data of any kind.

This has been requested since beta. Good luck getting it :)
If you need lots of storage at a time the best way is to store things in other scripts, and then back them up to email now and then. If something odd happens and the script loses the data you should be able to restore the backup by pasting it from your email into SL, then getting the script to read the notecard.

I so very much wish this were possible =(

It would save me so much hassle and frustration with work-arounds...
