help with string capture
 
I have a trigger i can't capture because it has multiple alternatives.

Valid NPC targets here: monster.
Valid NPC targets here: cat effigy.
Valid NPC targets here: cat effigy, monster, wisp bog gas.

How would one separate any of these targets into a list plz?
( or capture them in any fashion )

Thanx for any help :)

I was trying that.. got a weird result tho?

line from mud: Valid NPC targets here: cat effigy, monster, wisp bog gas.

captured: cat effigy, monster, wisp bog gas
result: cat effigy

if I do this...

#var trgList %replace( ( %1 ), ", ", "|")

i get this..( with the added braces, not a string list yet )

result: ( cat effigy|monster|wisp bog gas )

my example should give you the following string list:

cat effigy|monster|wisp bog gas
