Ok I've got this text file full of monster death messages. I wanna do a loop to add a trigger for each one. I'm gonna manually edit the actions tho.
So I've got this line
#loop 574 {#trigger {%read(1,%i)} {} "Monster Deaths"}
574 is the total msgs in the file. However, this line is merely making 574 triggers that say %read(1,1) and %read(1,2) and so on down the line to 574. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong here?

You have to force expansion with something like this:
#LOOP 1,574 {#EXEC {%concat("#TRIGGER {", %read(1, %i), "} {} ", %char(34), "Monster Deaths", %char(34), "}")}}
