Apparently my decoder ring project/script in SL may be impossible. One cannot convert datatypes and then back-convert them to the original??

Why not? That is annoying.

So you take a string. You can't just plain convert it to integer by cast. It seems you need to convert to base64 then to integer.

But when you take that integer you can't back convert it into the base64 blob and then back to the original string.

They work really hard to make LSL pointless, don't they?

I may be forced to hand-roll my own Atoi() function just to turn characters into bytes suitable for performing cryptographic operations.

It is flattering for one thing though... writing a script that has channel listeners, state management and interacts with inventory...

..right out of the gate impressed the shit out of folks I know. I was told by a fellow who had done extensive scripting in the past..

..if you do any sort of pro-Dev coding in RL. You can expect to go *quite* far scripting in SL.
