*bump*

no one? here's how it's written in the help files:

Syntax: #FIN string [view column SupressOutput]
If SupressOutput is present and non-zero, no output is displayed to the screen.


I have tried countless syntax solutions.. any help would be great

This seems to work for me.

#VAR supress_output 0
#FIND {green} {All} {description} {@supress_output}

#VAR supress_output 1
#FIND {green} {All} {description} {@supress_output}

as does this:

#VAR supress_output 1
#FIND {find string} {} {} {@supress_output}

Please make a bug report about this, and any other documentation you find lacking, to the bug reporting system.

Zugg is currently on non-zMud projects so I have a very large opportunity, with lots of time, to add to the help. At over over 800 distinct topics I still miss many things while working on it. Also I am only able to add things that my experience says should have been in there. If I have never happened to use a particular feature and it isn't documented then I won't know to add it. This is your best chance to help every current and future zMud user.
