And the question is?

Create a class to keep these triggers in. You can then use the #T+ command to enable the class and the #T- command to disable it, so the triggers will only be active when you're doing an identify. The #T+ command can either be in an alias for the "cast identify" command, or in a trigger for the first line. In either case, this command should also set the record variable to null, so that you don't carry over any data from the last identify.

The #T- command should be in a trigger which fires on whatever line will follow the id info -- this may be a blank line (#TR {$}) or it may be your prompt (be sure to use the nocr and prompt options). This trigger should also contain the #NEW command.

Your other triggers will be one (or more) for each line you expect to get and will use the #ADDKEY command to place the data into the record variable.

#AL id {#VAR identify %null;#T+ identify;cast identify}
#CLASS identify disable;#CLASS 0
#TR {^Object ~'(*)~' is type (*)} {#ADDKEY identify name {%1};#ADDKEY type {%2}}
#TR {extra flags (*).$} {#ADDKEY identify flags {%1}} {identify}
#TR {^~<%dhp %dm %dmv~>} {#T- identify} {#NEW all identify} {identify} {nocr|prompt}

Again, you really didn't ask a question. I hope this addressed what you wanted to know.
