Re: Text to textfile.

It looks like he just added some error checking to the normal file IO functions for Lua. They should behave similarly to the standard io functions. There are tutorials on the io library -Here- and -Here- . To use his script, just copy-paste the whole thing into an empty script in Mudlet and you shou...

Re: How would I disable two triggers?

Not sure I'm catching exactly what you want. Name = TriggerFoo send("Foo") Name = TriggerBar send("Bar") disableTrigger("TriggerFoo") disableTrigger("TriggerBar") When 'TriggerBar' is matched, it should disable itself and 'TriggerFoo'. I hope that's what you'r...

Multiple alignments in geyser label?

I'm concatenating a bunch of strings, then echoing to a label. I want part of each line on the left, part on the right. I've tried <font align='left/right'> as well as <left>/<right> and neither are working. What do I do? Here's the kind of thing I'm attempting: -- update ih window function gui.ih_u...

Re: help with script

What SlySven said. Here's a list of metacharacters. And HERE is an tool that'll let you check if your regular expressions are right. Using the start of line and end of line characters isn't necessary, but is generally recommended, as it prevents your trigger from matching unintended things. Like, if...

Re: help with script

The trigger line will depend on the prompt.You'll want to brush up on your regular expressions if you haven't already. A simple example is that if your prompt reads thus: HP: 125 MP: 98 Then you'll make your trigger expression ^HP: (\d+) MP: (\d+)$ The (\d+) part captures any number which you can ge...

Re: Mudlet features and API requests

I'm speaking from a position of ignorance, so sorry if this is nonsense, but wouldn't it be best to put the location of the settings files as early as possible in the hierarchy? Any time I've coded something that relies on a configuration file to determine its behavior, I've put that file in the sam...

Re: Ordering pets to move

You can capture the entire string of directions, then split the string up. Trigger: ^\(mapper\) (.+)\.$ Set up this function: function splitAtComma (str) local splitted = {} str = tostring(str:gsub(",","")) if string.find(str," ") then for word in string.gmatch(str, &qu...

Re: Mudlet features and API requests

[ ALERT ] - Socket got disconnected. English grammar dictates that this should be "Socket was disconnected." On a more serious note I would love an option in the settings menu to set the location of the profiles directory. I know that things like the symlink workaround exist, but this seem...

Re: Mudlet 3.0.0-delta (preview #4)

Something that might have been related to my previous searching crashes: I've had a few times recently where I was selecting large amounts of text in the buffer and Mudlet crashed. It always happened when the buffer was scrolling quickly. I only mention this because the find next buttons also scroll...
