Hi,
here's my first try of a room digging script. I will update it in the future.
The script will dig a cuboid room of depth, height and width size.
Options for the future:

local tArgs = { ... }
-- check number of arguments
if #tArgs < 3 or #tArgs > 4 then
error("Usage: room <depth> <height> <width>")
end
depth = tonumber(tArgs[1])
height = tonumber(tArgs[2])
width = tonumber(tArgs[3])
print("Digging Room D"..tArgs[1].."xH"..tArgs[2].."xW"..tArgs[3]);
-- move forward to create room
turtle.dig()
turtle.forward()
-- adjust depth for the step
depth = depth - 1
-- create room
for widthTemp = 1, width do
for heightTemp = 1, height do
for depthTemp = 1, depth do
-- dig straight forward
while turtle.detect() do
turtle.dig()
os.sleep(1) -- needed to work with gravel
end
turtle.forward()
end
-- line complete, move to next line
if heightTemp<height then
while turtle.detectUp() do
turtle.digUp()
end
turtle.up()
turtle.turnLeft()
turtle.turnLeft()
end
end
-- slice complete, return to start
-- move back on odd heights, otherwise we are already back
if height % 2 == 1 then
turtle.turnLeft()
turtle.turnLeft()
for depthTemp=1, depth do
turtle.forward()
os.sleep(1)
end
end
-- move down
for heightTemp=0, height-1 do
turtle.down()
end
-- next slice
if widthTemp<width then
turtle.turnLeft()
while turtle.detect() do
turtle.dig()
end
turtle.forward()
turtle.turnLeft()
end
end
Options for the future:
make api function with parameters for height, width, …- allow turtle to be placed in lower right corner instead of lower left
- place walls if needed.
added support for gravel
