Can someone help me with a fun script?
On my mud we have a gossip channel that is a main communication line ... ex
gossip This is a message!
The mud shows ... Aegir gossips This is a message!
I was wondering if anyone can help me with a
script that would randomly colorize each letter... color on my mud is done by ~a through ~m
with text following after the ~"letter" qualifier.
so I want be able to ex.....type
gos This is a message!
Aegir gossips ~bT~dh~ai~ks ~ei~gs (and so on)
this would show "This is" in random color on the mud..
I am a fairly smart person but have rudimentary zmud script knowledge but any help will be VERY appreciated.

thanx

#AL aegir {#LOOP 1,%len(%-1) {#SENDP {~~%case(%random(1, 13), a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m)%copy(%-1, %i, 1)}}}
Untested. Probably won't handle punctuation. May need a #CR at the end.

Just noticed, never put the "chat" command in. You could try:
#AL aegir {#SENDP "chat ";#LOOP 1,%len(%-1) {#SENDP {~~%case(%random(1, 13), a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m)%copy(%-1, %i, 1)}};#CR}
