HistSave With Directions?
 
Hi,

I'm trying to create a file that is a series of commands that includes directions and actions. I'd love to be able to basically "replay" part of my mud session at a later date. Histsave and Histload would be perfect, if they also captured directions.

I can't figure out an easy way to capture my commands (with directions) during play. Any ideas?


An example might be:

n
open n
l man
l woman
s
e
open n
dance
put gem in pot
l pot

Thanks in advance.

#LOG perhaps?

I just realized I posted this in the wrong forum, so I'll go to CMUD.

Log doesn't work because I don't want the mud's output. I just want to be able to re-enter commands efficiently.

Basically, I play a mud that gives you points for "exploring" areas, and it resets with each character. So, I want to capture the commands I need to explore a specific area and then efficiently replay it with my next character.

There's a preference that lets you specify the minimum length of commands that get saved in command history. Set that to 1 or 0 and you will be able to save directions like n or e and commands like l (look) in history.
