Okay, possibly a dumb question, but can MPX type triggers be used to make things clickable? Ie, I want to make clicking on my party leader's name in the MUD output cast a spell on him.

I wouldn't ask, but I know this works and is quiet handy:

#TRIGGER {({http|ftp|telnet}://%x)} {#SUBSTITUTE {~<A "%1">%1~</A>}}

What would it take to trigger off of, let's say, Bob?

#tr {Bob} {#sub {~<send "cast fireball at bob"~>Bob~</send~>}}

Would work.

Cool. What does it take to add a right-clickable menu of actions into the mix? Ie, I might want to "cast cure at bob" or "cast heal at bob"?

I assume it's the same type of replace thing, but what do you put inside the <>'s?

Woo, those are helpful help files. Every time I'd looked for one in the past, I ended up in some convoluted files on how to set up your MUD for MXP (which I constantly transpose to MPX for some reason).

Thanks.
