[1.17] Parsing weirdness
|
Two examples of weirdness with same bit of text. I'd mistyped a number so chatted for people to ignore it
I typed:
ooc (Ignore the '28' bit)
cmud sent to the mud:
ooc 28
So out of curiosity I tried
#show (Ignore the '28' bit)
cmud shows:
Ignorethe'28'bit |

It's a side effect of the parenthesis causing expression evaluation, although I'm not sure why it's different between the alias and #show. The #show result is the correct one, so that's pretty wierd alright.

it wasn't an alias. the first one was just typing into the command line and hitting return

Right, but CMUD parses it as if "ooc" was an alias. Play with it in the Compiled Code tab and you will see that a line like this gets compiled into an alias reference. Then at runtime, if the alias isn't found, then CMUD just sends the text to the MUD.
