In the list of updated things it says there is a built in LSL Wiki. Where can I find this? It seems that it would be very useful if I could find in.

Edit a script. On the script editor's menu there's a Help option. The second optioln is LSL Wiki Help...

Clicking that will bring up a mozilla browser with the scripting wiki in it.

There's a dropdown list of events, function names, constants, etc. Selecting an item will take the wiki to that term.

If you check the Follow Cursor checkbox it should be using the script editor's cursor to determine what to display, but at the moment it doesn't seem to be working properly for me, probably some problems with the update.

It would probably be better to have the human have to do a teeny bit of work like right clicking on a term in a script and selecting "wiki?" rather than have the already overburdened program having to constantly analyze the characters in the vicinity of the text cursor but I guess that wouldn't be as cool so they didn't do it that way.

Now if they could just dump that stupid sidebar on the scripting wiki - make a version of the wiki formatted to be maximally useful in minimum screen space.
