Controlling the prompt
|
I'm new at this so please bare with me.
My mud prompt looks similar to this:
<207/207hp 144/144m 430/430mv 100br 8,138xp>
Naturally, you can change it to display different information but you get the general idea.
On my mud though, 'look' does not provide the exit info (which throws off the automapper but that is a different subject). I have to do a separate 'exit'. I created an alias so the 'look' and 'exit' are sent at the same time.
The problem I have is that I receive a double prompt in return to my alias. One for the 'look' and one for the 'prompt'. I would like to receive only one prompt, after the exit info has been sent.
I created a class that will control the display of the prompt but I don't know what what expressions to use.
What would I use for an expression that controls the dispaly of the prompt. I don't want any part (including the newline) to display on my screen. |

#TR "promptgag" {~<%d/%dhp %d/%dm %d/%dmv %dbr %d,%dxp~>} {#GAG;#T- promptgag}
Use "#T+ promptgag" somewhere - possibly in the alias, or possibly in a trigger, to enable this trigger. It will only fire once as you can see, because it disables itself each time it fires. |

I'm using an alias to enable your trigger. It is:
#AL L {#T+ promptgag; look; exits}
It fires the promptgag once, as designed but it isn't working correctly.
The actual line gagged is at the top of the text sent. For example,
#gag removes the word "look"
#gag 2 removes the words "look", and "exits"
#gag 3 removes "look", "exits" and the room description.
What I need removed is the prompt line (i.e. <207/207hp 144/144m 430/430mv 100br 8,138xp>) |

#ALIAS as {look;#gag ~<*~>;exit}
Straight from the help files under #gag |

#AL L {#T+ promptgag;look;exits}
#TR "promptgag" {~<%d/%dhp %d/%dm %d/%dmv %dbr %d,%dxp~>} {} {} {nocr|prompt}
#COND {~<%d/%dhp %d/%dm %d/%dmv %dbr %d,%dxp~>} {#GAG;#T- promptgag} {nocr|prompt|Within|Param=1}
This should gag the first double prompt after you use the L alias. If that's not what you want, try using your exits line as the pattern and gag the first prompt after it. |
