(Update 2013/01/04 - I've created a Bukkit Plugin as this makes installing the mod much easier - assuming you're running a CraftBukkit server - which I recommend. See [Bukkit Support][buk] for details).
* load('path-to-script.js') - lets you load and execute any javascript source file. Calling load() with no parameters will bring up a File Chooser dialog. (In the context of script files, the $SCRIPT js variable will refer to the current script filename and $SCRIPTPATH refers to the directory in which the current script resides.)
* putBlock(x,y,z,blockId,metaData) - A function which lets you place a block anywhere (if no coordinates are given the block the player is currently looking at is replaced).
* getBlock(x,y,z) - returns the blockId and metadata at the given location (if no coordinates are given the cross-hair location is used)
You will also need to install the Minecraft Coder Pack (CraftBukkit Users - please skip this section and [go here instead][buk]) and be comfortable installing a Minecraft Mod.
You can get the Minecraft Coder Pack here...

... You will need to follow MCP's instructions to decompile your minecraft.jar file.
6. Run `reobfuscate.bat` (windows) or `./reobfuscate.sh` (Linux/Mac).
7. Follow MCP's instructions for copying the obfuscated files and rebuilding the minecraft.jar file that is in %appdata%/minecraft/bin (windows), ~/Library/Application Support/Minecraft/bin (Mac) or ~/.minecraft/bin (Linux).
Once you've installed the mod, launch Minecraft and type `/js load()` and load the `cottage.js` file. Once the cottage.js file is loaded you can create a new cottage by typing `/js cottage()`.
Take a look over the cottage.js file to see how the Drone module can be used to easily create buildings. You can even create a whole row of cottages using the following in-game command...
/js load("./cottage"); // path may vary on your machine
/js d = new Drone(); for (i=0; i <20;i++){cottage(d).right(10);}
