Re: Mudlet API requests

enableAlias()/disableAlias() functions. I'd guess they'd be almost identical to enableTrigger/disableTrigger. Might have a look if I get a minute...

Re: Defence list for Achaea

It's a bit complicated to do. Lua doesn't care about the order of this type here (where it's key = value), so the way it saves them is rather random. It is possible to make it go in an orderly fashion, someone suggested to try "so instead of "for k,v in pairs(t) do ..." you can do &q...

Re: Graphical bar display help

Typically, it was that simple.. Just had to swap resizing/echo'ing text, and it all works now...

Thanks!

Tabbed Chat [w/ screenshot+package]

Here's the tabbed chat script I've been using to split channels based on subject. I've revamped and packaged this now, so it should be reasonably easy to configure... Just import the 'tabbedChat.xml' file. Technically, I guess the showWindow/hideWindow isn't needed if they're moved off-screen, but a...

Re: sending text to miniconsole with a specific colour

Well the new functions have been working great on miniconsoles and whatnot, but for whatever reason I cannot get them to work on labels... Not sure if this is just an implication thing or not, but none of the functions bar "setBackgroundColor" seem to work on labels anymore. At the moment,...

Re: table.save and/or table.load not working for me anymore

Caled, I had the same problem a while ago, try specifying an absolute path for the files (eg: "/home/usr/.config/Mudlet") and/or saving the following as a script (it's just the save/load functions in LuaGlobal.lua): function table.save( sfile, t ) if t == nil then t = _G end local tables =...

Re: sending text to miniconsole with a specific colour

Caled, I can't remember if I mentioned this in IRC... setTextFormat has been re-enabled in the latest source release, although the 'red' component of the foreground colour is broken, here's a template (bg/fg is background/foreground, r/g/b are just colours): setTextFormat(window, bg_r, bg_g, bg_b, f...

Re: quickly creating a list from a trigger pattern

It's actually pretty simple. string.gsub will take the second parameter as a regular expression and search through the string you provided it, recording all matches. The reason (%w+) (which matches any word) works over an entire string is because it doesn't contain 'open line'/'end line' (^/$) chara...

Re: Last requests before feature freeze

readBuffer(), to read the contents of a buffer/label/miniconsole, or am I just missing something? :P

Oh, and is it possible to have an 'onExit' event, so we can cleanup stuff?
