So, I have wintin++, mushclient AND roaclient installed. I don't use triggers or any of that, (save for macros, but don't crucify me) but I'd like some highlights. How the bloody hell do I do that? I've looked at all the coding pages and melinda's triggers and all, but none o' that jives. I looked at Jibber's tintin scripts and don't understand at all. All's I want are a few basic hilights.
Can anyone help me out, from the newbiest bottom level to where you fools are? :]
Don't know if WinTin and TinTin scripts are compatible.
Other than that, I can't help. I just do the Crucifying around here. And Exorcisms. And Sermons.
You can get highlights with wintin95 I believe.
Highlights are easy.
Just a couple things before we get started, though.
^ means that it has to match at the beginning of the line. $ means that it has to match at the end of the line. If you do something like:
^The white aura around your body fades.$
Then it has to match exactly (and not on a prompt line, bled in with other text, etc).
To highlight, simply type: #highlight {string} {color}.
For instance...
#highlight {^The white aura around your body fades.$} {}
or
#highlight {^The white aura around your body fades.$} {bold green}
You can also do advanced highlights using the #substitute feature.
#sub {^The white aura around your body fades.$} {THE WHITE AURA AROUND YOUR BODY FADES!!!<088>}
The above, as you should've guessed, would make it upper case, bright green, and hard to miss.
There's advanced ways to sub stuff too, like:
#sub {^You flee %1!$} {You flee %1!<088>} would match:
You flee east!
You flee west!
You flee up!
You flee down!
You flee north!
You flee south!
And so on and so forth. If you have anymore questions, don't hesitate to ask!
now, which client is this you're talking about? and which programming language is that? VB? PERL? i know little.
tintin++/wintin. And it's.. programmed in tintin language? I guess..
So, what about the damage colors script on the wiki? Can I just copypaste that? If so, when? Before I start a session?
Open a text file. Paste it in. Save it.
Then in tintin, type: #read LOCATIONOFFILE
Should load up fine.
so, after i start a session, i type #read c\docs\user\place\filename.ext?
okay, did. noice.
Yes.
haaahahaha. I input #read c\etc. instead of #read c:\etc. I feel dumb.
