im trying to make a scrpit that will make each of the words in the line of text in a certain channel a differnt color (random color each time), i have gotten it to work already but there are only 20 different words i can use and if i dont use the 20 words there are still alot of empty spaces where a wod should go to fill the spaces....

anyway i was just wodering if anyone knows a way to make a script that will count how many word you typed and then assign a random color to each word. there are 14 colors and im pretty sure they are basic colors on any mud. @r @R @b @B @g @G @y @Y @m @M @w @W @c @C

im sorry if this is hard to understand
