When you write your script, just listen for the message with a listen event. Because you'll be listening on an open chat channel, you'll want to filter at least by looking for a specific keyword, to reduce lag....

CODE

llListen(0,"",NULL_KEY,"Magic Keyword");


Take a look at to see how it's done.
