the mud i'm playing use graphic arrow to point out direction. And i failed to capture the text of the arrow.
It seem's the origin data send to zmud contains control code, and thus become hard to be understand. When i turn off VT102 option, the arrow turn out to be unreadble. And the same happens when i use a trigger to capture the text or when i use #log to capture the text.

the arrow show in zmud windown




                    


        /**\         


       *****         


      ** **  \        


     */  **    \       


    */   **          


         **           


  *     ***     *      


   *    ***

The arrow when i turn off vt102 or use trigger to capture or use #log to capture










            *****  


        ** **  \   





        */   **      





    ***     *     *  


                **   





    *    ***         


 /**\               








     */  **    \

You can try this... but jeeze, what a dumb thing to do for an exit.

#TR {%s~$%s~/~*~*~~} {whatever code goes here to make this north}

This matches the first two lines and makes that north... you can try that. You'll need to isolate a line or two of output for each direction that is unique to that arrow... each one almost certainly has a pattern in it that the others do not. I gotta tell ya, that is a retarded exit if I've ever seen one. I hope that mud is worth it. Also, you may need to make it an ansi trigger. There's a checkbox for that.

The reason for the second arrow being so screwed-up looking is that you are viewing it with a variable-width font, where 'M' takes up more space than 'i'.

Good luck.

thanks for your advice :)
but it'seems you did not catch what realy puzzles me.

I have no problem to recognize the arrow.
bug I can not CAPTURE the text .

the two arrows you saw are exactly one.
the first is what i copied from the zmud window.
the second is what i captured using a trigger.
the trigger is as simply as #tr {^(*)$} {#window arrow %1}

I guess the mud developer have added vt102 control code or somethine like that into the text to prevent Robot .
I'm not fimiliar with vt102 and hope somebody can help me.
