I had to do something similar on TorilMud getting my mapper to properly recognize rooms. Not changing mob name colours, but locating the room description / room name in a text stream with no particular markers. Your prompt line is a unique marker. The 'Exits:' line also tends to be unique. Jor'Mox '...

One question. I loaded and configured YATCO, but have had an odd issue. I'm coming from TinTin++ and everything would load on its own line in that client, so virtually all of my triggers and such would be prefixed with ^ to make sure they only function when the text begins the line. With Mudlet I'v...

Looking at the Qt class, something like that could be helpful. In playing with fonts, i've re-written my gui to not use pre-built .png files, but instead create all the buttons/etc realtime from a table. This allowed me to give users a single command (@set font xxx + similar settings for colours use...

Something useful going with this might be a command like 'getFonts()' that returned a table with a list of names of installed fonts.

So, we need to make this as easy and hassle-free as possible and atm I'm not seeing any limitation to it. Scan the list of files in a package, install any font files you find, done. That would work really well to: If the package installer were to copy any included .ttf files into the fonts director...

I haven't look at the Qt structure for loading fonts, but that sounds kind of complex. Wouldn't it be possible to just have a lua call loadFont(fontname) that - If font is already loaded, does nothing - If font is not loaded, copies the provided font file to the fonts directory, then registers it to...

That would probably work perfect: registerFont(path) with path being an offset from the current profile location. That could allow me to load (and immediately use) a new font file included with the package, without having to copy the file to a new location. If the registerFont command itself were to...

Just played a bit more with this doing it from script - The main problem now with this would probably be while having the script copy the file into the fonts directory does work, the font itself isn't usable until next mudlet restart. (Windows)

I'm trying to figure out how to use CSS properties with echo. In particular, the intent is I have a lot of pre-rendered .png files i'm using for buttons. I would like to change them to all be generated realtime from a table. A sample button: https://github.com/Nyyrazzilyss/NyyLIB/raw/master/NyyLIB01...
