is it possible to capture multi-line modifiers for eq from spells such as Identify, store them in a database, and recall/echo them to my client windows when I want to know stats on equipment?
When I cast Identify spell I get a response something like this

Your identify reveals that a: A set of black scale armplates is
item is:Armor
Armor Class: Heavy
additional effects:
+hitroll
+damage

What I would like to see zmud to do is this, capture the Armor class of Heavy and additional effects of +hitroll and +damage and put it into a Databas next to A pair of black scale armplate.

Then whenever I want to see the modifiers on a piece I want to be able to quickly retrieve these modifiers and display something like this:

A pair of Black scale armplates: Heavy, +hr, +dam

Is this even remotely possible using zmud version 5.55?
Any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated.

It's certainly possible. I've assumed that you'll have a blank line immediately following the list of effects. If you won't then you'll need to change that trigger's pattern. I've also assumed that all effects will begin with either a + or a -.

After entering the script, you should change the Ident class options to Disable class when connecting to a MUD and disable the class. This is necessary to limit the blank-line trigger to one use per ident.

Queries and their displays can be designed however you want. I've included one as an alias.

#TR {Your identify reveals that a: (*) is} {#T+ Ident;#VAR Item {};#ADDKEY Item Name {%1}}
#TR {$} {#T- Ident;#IF %query( &Name = @Item.Name) {} {#NEW All @Item}} {Ident}
#TR {item is:(*)} {#ADDK Item Type {%1}} {Ident}
#TR {Armor Class: (*)} {#ADDK Item ArmorClass {%1}} {Ident}
#TR {({+|-})(*)} {#IF %iskey( @Item, Effects) {#ADDK Item Effects {%db( @Item, Effects), %1%2}} {#ADDK Item Effects {%1%2}}} {Ident}
#AL EquipID {#FORALL %find( "%-1") {#SAY {%db( %i, Name): %db( %i, ArmorClass), %db( %i, Effects)}}}
