Vrml To Second Life Translator

The typical SecondLife hello world script is

default {

    state_entry()
    {
        llSay(0, "Hello, Avatar!");
    }

    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        llSay(0, "Touched.");
    }

}

Partial vrml ( VirtualRealityModelingLanguage ) scripting translation of the program above follows for comparison. Trying to write mappings from vrml (Javascript) scripting for SLScript functions as I find it's faster to test what the 3D looks like in vrml (no lag, which I find makes programming in SL challenging). Since the plug-ins are freely available for any browser. With the view to then login and paste to the code editor in SL and make minor modifications to syntax, which is also similar. Would be interested to know if there are already (free) off-line SLScript editors or existing vrml mappings. Anyway here is a version of touch_start() above. The same could be done for state_entry(). It seems verbose but once all the functions were defined, I think you could make programs that would be very close to how they would look in SL. This would accelerate scripters ability to develop. The code below should work by just typing in notepad as hello.wrl and double clicking assuming a vrml plug-in is installed in IE, Firefox etc.
