Events are notifications being sent from the bot to your script (error messages, group chat IMs etc).

TotalControl Events section contains all events which can be sent by TotalControl to your script.

How to send commands

Use LSL llMessageLinked function to send commands to the bot.

llMessageLinked(LINK_SET, BOT_GET_BALANCE, "", NULL_KEY);

How to receive events

link_message(integer sender, integer cmd, string data, key id) {
  if(cmd == BOT_EVENT_LISTEN_MONEY) {
    debug("My balance is: " + data);
  } 
}
