new scripting commands

[moggy2]

is there a list of the new commands available anywhere yet?

[Burianek]

Well, they're in the s.e.
As far as a compilted list of just new commands, no, I don't think I've seen anything like that yet.

[AalaarDB]

These all look great, can you explain how %0 get index of %2 in array %1 offset=%3 \053 1 works? I could use a sequential search that searches an array of arrays where the key is inside the inner array, but I don't think that's what this is :/

[DeltaWolf]

What would be great is if someone could update the MSCI Handbook so that it reflect the SE for X3

(don't look at me )
