problem with focus char
|
make an alias, pattern note or znote, whatever really and put this in it.
| Code: |
#addkey notes %eval(%numkeys(@notes)+1) %-2
:Notes:#CLR
:Notes:#showdb @notes |
Then make it this
| Code: |
#if (%2 = add) {#addkey notes %eval(%numkeys(@notes)+1) %-2
:Notes:#CLR
:Notes:#showdb @notes} |
gets an error message |

The opening brace has to be at the end of the line.
| Code: |
#if (%2 = add) {
#addkey notes %eval(%numkeys(@notes)+1) %-2
:Notes:#CLR
:Notes:#showdb @notes
} |

This may be silly but I have had sucess with using "%-2" instead of %-2 without meaning anything intelligent by it, just because the other did not work. I expect you will get a literal %2 or just a 2, but I never know with those as I don't think much on different levels but like to experiment

"%-2" actually works in zMUD - it still substitutes the value of %-2. Bizarre, I know - CMUD fixes this.

Not sure what to suggest other make sure the indenting is right. Or try the code all one line. I'm not getting an error with it.

Could anyone maybe give suggestion as to what might be causing these errors besides a bad installation? Here is an image of a blank session with the script in it, and the error.

It really looks like Zugg is wanting you to use
#EXECWIN windowname {commands}
instead of :windowname:commands...
I AM seeing the error and I cannot think of any way to make it work short of changing it.
#if (%2 = add) {#addkey notes %eval(%numkeys(@notes)+1) %-2
#EXECWIN notes {#CLR}
#EXECWIN notes {#showdb @notes}} |

Well, that ends one mystery. For future reference, CMud questions belong in CMud forums, so see you there.

....this isn't a cmud question? And thanks for that workaround arminas, no idea why I didn't stumble on #execwin on my own :)

It wasn't originally - the thread was in the zMUD forum at first.
