BrightScript documentation?
Every real programming language has some sort of online documentation that spells out each function, what it's used for and such like that... Where is brightscripts documentation? and before someone...

Everyone here (with the exception, perhaps, of RokuMarkN) started from the same basic set of documentation and examples, and yet they managed to learn the language and interact with other people learning the language without resorting to insulting each other for not having the answers to their questions.
Actually I had no special help with it, I learned Brightscript from the examples and docs, same as everyone else here. I do have access to the source so I have on occasion looked up the code to see how it was handling a particular construct, but I've only done that maybe a couple of times.
jblack199, I'm not sure if you're looking for help, as you've only (as far as I can see) asked one question in your voluminous rants about the docs. I'll answer that question and hope that it will get you started. You said "like the function CreateObject i can figure that out, it creates an object pretty simple.. but what's the object? is the object defined by the rofunction you pass into it? and what are these rofunctions?" The first parameter to CreateObject is not a function but the name of an object, as a string. The list of valid object names, and the parameters that are valid for each object, is found in sections 10 and 11 of the Brightscript Reference, and sections 4 through 8 of the Component Reference.
