One of the most useful functions you will ever use in scripting.
Azn's Basic Get Link Number by Name Script Full Perms contains a function you can add to your scripts to let you use link names instead of link numbers.
A lot of scripting beginners will benefit from this function. You will not have to worry about the order you link your links, except for the root of course.
You can add or remove links, which will change the link numbers, but your Get Link Number by Name function will find them again!
I included lots of comments to help you learn how it works, how to use it, and an example object to demonstrate it in use. Script is FULL PERMS, demo object is mod/copy.
BONUS!!!
This item now contains functions to find link number by prim description and by key!

excellent clear and amazing tutorial
Advanced scripters advised me with some complicated strategies that almost always worked and only in certain cases, but here, in this tutorial, the scripting strategy streamlines the process and taught me, a nearly absolute beginner, how to do it and to understand how to do it. I am grateful for this gift and would recommend it to scripters of all levels from beginners to advanced.
