managing the friends list

Is it possible to scan the list of friends in a script and check their characteristics ?

Nope. Not possible.

The script will need to have its own list/notecard of UUIDs of your friends.

Thank you for the answer.
Is it possible not to re-type the UUIDs manually in a notecard ? Where can I get the UUID of the friends who are normally known as name/surname.

thx in advance

And another good one:

thx for the links. I believe I can now create a notecards with the list of my friends and their key.
Next step is to operate on the single name/key. In particular I am looking for a programmatic way to enable/disable the "Can see my online status" checkbox.

I assume that if it can be done using the GUI, it should also be possible do to it via a program, but I have found no function to do it.

Does anyone has an idea on how it is possible to do it ?

You would most likely have to write a custom client for a task like that. either using the open source client code, or LibSL. There's no way to do it from a script.

I checked in libSL, and found that there is a method, GrantUserRights, in class FriendManager, that should do exacly what is needed.
But I didn't think to write a custom client outside the official viewer; LSL is very nice and would like to stay with it.
Is there a way to use the above method in a small program and invoke it from inside a script ?

thx

I'm sure you could, maybe by sending a HTTP request to your computer from your script. However as I've never sat down to figure it out, I'm not sure exactly how

Perhaps someone else has a suggestion?

using http seems not very elegant and rather complex too.
Does anyone know if it is possible to create a LSL buil-in function such as llGrantUserRights ?
