Today in the latest build of Radegast, we got even better access to inventory! We can now rez objects, look at the contents of objects, and edit the contents, I know for certain notecards and scripts.
I logged onto SL last night and saw a message telling me I ought to check out the latest build, because I could re objects, look at the contents, edit scripts and notecards, and take the object back into my inventory.
So I did. Talvin gave me a little box to play with, called Dianna’s Little Box, and I rezed it and peeked at the notecard and script inside. I edited the notecard for the fun of it. I didn’t touch the script, though. I had such fun doing that, I took my own TP Favorites list from my Aide object and edited *that* to suit, as well (with some trepidation, I was afraid I would mess things up somehow). And it worked. I shorten all my teleport shortcuts considerably, and they all worked! 
So today I logged back in; I had thought, Wow, it’s great; all we need now is the ability to copy things into the contents of an object. And I saw a message telling me to download the latest build of Radegast again. So I did.
We can now copy things into objects, and copy contents from objects into our inventories! This means … we can now edit scripts! This means Talvin doesn’t have to be the only one working on the Guide! This means that we as blind and visually impaired users (or sighted ones who use Radegast) can now take a greater hand in the project, maybe even take it over if we want! This is what Talvin was aiming for all along!
Talvin had given me a bunch of prims, and I copied one of them, moved it to a folder I created for objects in progress, renamed it, rezed it out, and edited the script to say something other than “Hello Avatar!” It says, when you click/touch the box, “I am a part of SL history!” I just took the new script you always get when you create a script and edit it like so: default { state_entry() { } touch_start(integer total_number) { llSay(0, “I am a part of SL history!”); } }
Then I saved it and tested it and it worked. A big thank-you to Latif for making this possible!:)

A note: Apparently the post got deleted, but I recieved a comment in my inbox from someone. Good luck figuring out Entombed! I haven’t gotten out of the dungeon yet, either. I am on floor 15!
For those who are interested, Entombed is an audio game with a demo you can get at:
