%pos, %ismember
|
Wondering how to nest %pos with %ismember.
example mud output:
The Wonderfully Ugly Bob is here.
Sadistically Superficial Ted the Antisocial is here.
Where the pre and post titles can change, but the name can't.
(want both to trigger)
OR
Bobbyfisher is here. ///heh, I make joke...
(Don't want trigger)
Trying to make an #IF statement that checks if %n is a member of friends... found a LONG way of doing this, and even tried several ways of combining %pos and %ismember. only long way semi-worked...
#VAR friends Bob|Ted
#IF %pos ("Bob", %1) {blah} {#NOOP}
#IF %pos ("Ted", %1) {blah} {#NOOP} |

Try this:
#if ("%1" =~ {@friends}) {blah} {#noop} |

If you don't want "Bob" to match "Bobbyfisher," try putting a space on either side of "Bob" to make it match the whole word. To put the whole name (with spaces) in the list, you'll need to enclose it in quotes. Otherwise, the spaces will be trimmed when it is added.
#additem friends " Bob "
#additem friends " Ted "
#trigger {{@friends}} {#cw red} |

#trigger {^(*) is here.$} {
#loop %numwords("%1") {
#if %ismember(%word("%1",%i),Bob|Ted) {#cw 47}
}
}

I wouldn't use Pega's script if you have a lot of items in your friends variable. Better to use the other method.

There are problems in the other method.
These would not match:
quote:
Bob Danlo is here.
Danlo Bob, the Mudder is here.
Use my first example, the %pos() one has problems too. |

Also, like Larking said, one common solution to this is to match spaces around the name too. However, the spaces are not normally stored inside the string list, instead three triggers are used:
#TRIGGER {^{@friends} } {do stuff}
#TRIGGER { {@friends} } {do stuff}
#TRIGGER { {@friends}$} {do stuff}
This is the traditional solution. However, this three triggers can be modified to better handle punctation. Also, with the new option that allows wildcard inside string list or by using a regulkar expression trigger, this should be made easier too. I'll look more into this and post back with a better trigger set. |

Two-trigger solution.
#TR {^({@Friends})%p*is here} {say Hi %1}
#TR {%p({@Friends})%p*is here} {say Hi %1}
This can be done with a single regex trigger.
#REGEX {b(@Friends)W+.*is here} {say Hi %1}
It should be possible to do a single trigger in zScript, using %q in place of %p, but it doesn't work with parentheses around the stringlist. |

Half a point to Pega!
Two points to Lightbulb!
Everyone else fails!

Where are %p and %q documented? I'm having trouble finding them in the help files.
