Pike scripts

Pike scripts are an easy and quick way of doing scripting in Roxen. Since Pike is also the language that Roxen uses internally, Pike scripts are efficient, and easy to handle.

Support for Pike scripts in Roxen is provided by the the Pike script support module.

As with Pike modules, error messages are reported complete with a Pike backtrace. This makes development fast since it is simple to pinpoint the problem.

Pike scripts are usually persistent. That means they will be compiled only once, and invoked repeatedly. This makes them fast and efficient.
