I need help making a container trigger. Basically, it will add all the items in a container to a list when i look in it. Then, it will report what is in the trigger to my group mates. The output of mud is as follows, the only thing different when you examine different containers, is the name. I am not sure how I could do this, and I need it to limit how many items it will say back at one time, to a max of like 5 maybe...if it says back to much, the mud will not accept it. Good news though, my database is finally working :)

You see nothing special.
When you look inside, you see:
The Blazing Collar of Red 13 contains:
(Glowing) Cordelia's Tear
tree moss (4)
ointment of palanthine
ointment of invocation and springing
(Invis) (Glowing) (Humming) malleable corpus
the Scales of the Ibrandlin
a reboot partyhat
a glass of milk
a small brass compass (2)
a strange looking helmet with a spinning wheel on top
a long carved wooden staff
a small bronze compass
a golden demon claw
a beautifully colored dragonscale shield
(Glowing) a driftlight
Cyndar's glowing blue wand
(OVERSTAT) a ring forged of wrought iron
the soul of the Darkling
salve of protection
single pokeball marker
an Eagle Eye Mask
salve of heroism
(Humming) a Scepter of Shielding
an ebony shield
a pair of magical glasses
the tail of kentas of karth-hokesh
an ebony breastplate fashioned from the fabric of shadows
a flanged battle mace (2)
(Invis) a gambling token (4)
a small lockpick (3)
a pair of crimson demon horns
the Dagger of the Ancients
a vial of extra-healing
(Glowing) (Humming) the Eye of Lidefeath
a crimson red mace surrounded by an unholy fire
(Glowing) (Humming) The magical teeth of Gatinblk
a pale humming potion (14)
a mithril wristband
Idol of the Crimson Bull

You need a way to know when the output of the container ends. I will assume here a blank line:
#ALIAS reportContents {#VAR temp @container;groupTell My container has:;#WHILE (@temp <> "") {#VAR message %concat(%item(@temp, 1), %item(@temp, 2), %item(@temp, 2), %item(@temp, 4), %item(@temp, 5));groupTell @message;#LOOP 1,%max(5, %numitems(@temp)) {#DELNITEM items %i}}}
#TRIGGER {When you look inside, you see:} {#VAR container "":#T+ getContents}
#TRIGGER {$} {#T- getContents;reportContents}
#TRIGGER {(*)} {#ADDITEM container "%1"}

It might display a little strange when the number of items in the container is not evenly divisble by 5, but it should work fine otherwise.
