  • filepath HomeDirectory: Home directory according to LavishScript
  • int RunningTime: Amount of time, in milliseconds, the current application has been running. This value wraps after about 23 days of leaving the application running.
  • string LSModule: LavishScript version number

  • bool QueryEvaluate[#, object]: (Object Queries) Determines if the given object matches the given query

  • ExecuteAtom[name,...]: Executes an atom with the given name in global- or script-scope (if a script is currently in context). Extra parameters are passed as parameters to the atom.
  • RegisterEvent[name]: Registers an event of <name>
  • Eval[command,index:string]: Evaluates the given command, directing any lines of output into an index:string
  • FreeQuery[#]: (Object Queries) Frees a previously created query, by ID
  • RegisterEnum[typeName,bool]: Registers a new enum and LavishScript Object Type with <typeName>.
