  === What is the Client Scripting Interface? ===
  Basically, the Client Scripting Interface is a way to have an external program (the script) interact client-side with your in-game behaviour. The script can have a copy of messages sent from the server to your client (there is a wide variety of such messages), can have a copy of messages sent from your client to the server (there are also lots of them), may request information (on a item, a map square ...) and finally can issue commands to the server. Lets call those actions, respectively, server-client spying, client-server spying, examining and interacting.
  
  === How do I run my script ===
- Most of the time it is basically straight forward.  The command     script <pathname>    would be entered to start the script.  How ever that only works if you write your script in a shell script or C/++.  If you write you script in Java it get a bit more tricky but no worries its not that hard.  After you write your program and compile you must create a shell script to run the program from the client.  As long as you have your shell script in the same directory as your .class file a simple "java <blah>" will do.  Don't forget to chmod +x your shell script :-)

+ We are going to create a shell script that will run out scripts in Java for us.
+ 
+      #!/bin/bash
+      cd /dir/to/java.class
+      java $1
+ 
+ Remember to chmod +x the script so that its executable.
+ Now to run your script this is all you have to do is  "script /path/to/bashScript blah"   blah being your .class file - .class and /path/to/bashScript being the executable bash script.
