"As a programmer from 30 years ago, I couldn’t quite get a handle on LSL structure and syntax. I saw MOAB advertised and grabbed it. ... MOAB is truly brilliant in how it works, and the ease of use. Antonius is a nice fellow and will always answer any queries you may have. ...The price is great value for what you get, you get more than what you see. "

"...I got this about a month ago, has some quirks felt like a noob not understanding it, but I kept at it and it's an awesome tool. ... this is really good, it's fun and I'm always learning. 5 stars is a must. Keep up the good work Antonius"

"Felt like a newbie for a few days. I can script by hand but this just makes it so much easier. Very nice work Antonius."

"I have been in SL for quite a few years now and my main interest has been Building. I have dabbled in scripting but up until now I have found it quite a chore ... Creating scripts with this application is a little like building. You put the blocks together and if you are lucky it all looks good and works. ... As far as price is concerned I feel its worth much more than it is sold for. It must have taken ages to create and I take my hat off to Antonius. ... Anyway, to sum it up. Well worth the money."

"Damn I wish this had been around when I started scripting all those years ago! This thing is just, to be blunt, bloody brilliant. ... Worth every L$ in my opinion. New to scripting or even a professional scripter, this tool is just what we have been waiting for."

"I love this tool. MiceOnABeam is awesome. I have been trying hard to learn scripting and having a hard time. Then I found this... The best 3000L I ever spent. I haven't stopped using it since I got it... Making script after script just to see how it works."

I see this is a beta release...what's the software licening status of this?
Will it still be free when it come out of beta? Is the code time-limited?

This version and subsequent beta revisions have a 45 day expiry to encourage download of the latest release.

Once the program has been sufficiently refined and is in general release, I anticipate charging a nominal amount (< L$3000) for a PRO version to support the development of the product.

However a free version will always be available, but not being a fan of limiting a program's functionality myself, I'm currently undecided as to what restrictions to enforce in the free version. I'm looking forward to feedback from users of the beta in terms of what they would feel would be reasonable.

I don't think $L3000 is too much to ask for a truly useful LSL development tool.

Thanks for your answer.

Just thought I would say, Well Done, to Antonius. Excellent piece of software, for an equally excellent price. I am an active builder in SL and have relied upon others to provide scripts for me. This has given me the incentive to have a go at writing my own. Remember people, It costs nothing to upload a script into SL, unlike textures and sculpties. No wonder the script writers are all rich. lol. Thanks again Antonius. Just thought. some way to test the scripts outside SL would be great. Dont know if thats possible?

Thanks Ostard!

Yes there are two programs that I know of to test LSL scripts outside of SL. The first one is called LSL Editor, works well and is very simple to use; in fact I use it myself to test out scripts.

The second program is called LSL Plus and it is a comprehensive S/W development & testing environment running on the Eclipse platform. It is used by some experienced scripters.

If you have any questions getting up to speed, post a forum entry or email support@miceonabeam.com
