Well, variables don't store the color of their data (hey, that might be something to look into...we have ansi triggers, why not ansi variables? ), so that option is out.
But, have no fear, because we still have options--
1)
a)if you already know (or can access a chart detailing) the ansi color codes, then skip to part b. Now that we have the experienced folk out of the way, here's what you need to do. Go to Preferences, then click on General and finally on Emulation. Uncheck the Emulate Control Codes option (either that or the Ansi Color option, not sure which will work) and click the OK button.
b)Next, make the line you want to trigger on appear. Capture that whole line (yep, even the garbage) and put that in your trigger pattern. Also make sure to check the Ansi Trigger checkbox found under the Options tab. You might need to use quote characters to make it work right, and you might have to change the ansi escape character to the zmud equivalent.
c)finally, turn back on the ansi coloring, save the trigger, and begin testing it.
2)if you already know what the color will be or if you are using a manual color system (to colorize an uncolorized MUD), you can forego the above method and simply insert the ansi code or the %ansi() function into the variable. This will obviously cause problems of varying degrees when you try to use this variable with commands such as #PICK.

Sorry, I didnt understand ...maybe my bad
english :(
I'll explain better the problem.
I want to trigger only the lines colored
yellow, non gray, red, purple...only the
yellow ones.
ie:
pattern: (*)$
value: some commands executed only if pattern
color is yellow.
The problem is tha the pattern could non start from the first char of a line, and
I cant use the function %color :( |

How about something similar from here:

Have you ever tried using:
#TRIGGER {(%e)[1;34m[(%e)[1;33m(*)} {PutActionHere}
Or even:
#TRIGGER {%e[1;34m[%e[1;33m*} {#CAPTURE Clan}

Hum, look here, I used this pattern
(turning ANSI TRIGGER on)
pattern: %e[1;33m(*)$
but the trigger doesnt fire
changing mattern to
[1;33m(*)$
It fires every line I receive putting in %1
zmud code!
Where is the problem? :( |

Probably in the special characters used in the ANSI codes. You need to quote the [ and the ; at least, but I'm not sure if you need to quote the escape character (which zmud uses %e or $e for, whichever is the one that works)

Actually, you don't need to use the ~ in the ansi portion of ansi triggers (I don't know why but you don't). You do need the %e (it's the predefined variable for the escape character). Yellow is 1;33 (1;34 is high blue). So, for your yellow lines you need:
#TR {%e[1;33m(*)$} {#var yellowline {%stripansi(%1)} {} {ansi}
I put the stripansi function to remove any additional ansi coding, since it would contain ;'s.
