[.Shuggles.] FREE Script Library FULL PERM Version 0.65

The Script Library contains some useful functions I often need in my scripts. I'm pretty
sure they can be helpful to other scripters as well. Just copy the necessary functions to
your scripts to use them.

It contains a small testframe to test some typical usecases and special cases of the
included functions. Just rez a prim, drop the scripts in and touch it. Check the output
manually. Be sure to verify your usecases as well.

Provided functions:

- compare strings lexically
- replace all occurences of one string in another (in 2 different implementations)
- get substring that is enclosed by a start and an end string, e.g. to parse simple XML data
- parse a string into a list without the 8 items limit
- print long strings, split into max. 1024 bytes long parts at line breaks
- get string length in bytes
- convert characters to their 7 bit and 8 bit ASCII code and vice versa
- convert integers and floats to their hexadecimal notation
