Super simple command question
|
Ok, this is probably the dumbest question I've ever had to ask about a MUD client :P but I cannot find the answer in the helps or by trial and error...
I have several thousand (yes that's right!) alias in my Zmud file. Many of them are similarly named (for similar uses). I'm looking for some command I can use to display all aliases matching a pattern to my Zmud window for quick reference.
For example, in TinTin++ (years and years ago) typing
#al ka-
would show all aliases that started with "ka-"
Thanks a lot in advance :) |

Would love to have that in here as well. |

No doubt a better way to do this but heres the first thing I came up with.
| Code: |
#ALIAS matchalias {#loop %session.NumAliases {
#if %match(%session.AliasNum(%i).Name,%1) { #echo %session.AliasNum(%i).Name}
}} |
This creates yet another alias  , but you could easily make it a function if you wished, however with this alias just type matchalias pattern
where pattern is the regular expression pattern you wish matched, this just echos the name of the aliases which is what i think you want but you
could easily modify it so it shows the body of the alias like the #ALIAS command does. |

Actually, this works perfectly. Gives one of those silly error msgs that seem to crop up out of perfectly done things but who cares 
| Code: |
#loop %session.NumAliases {#if %match(%session.AliasNum(%i).Name,%1) { #echo %session.AliasNum(%i).Name}}
^ syntax error |

Was just thinking, this MatchAlias script rox so much....wouldn't it be great if there was a MatchTrigger one as well?
Well, tried it and failed at it (like that's a shock)
#ALIAS matchtrig {#loop %session.Numtrig {#if %match(%session.TrigNum(%i).Name,%1) { #echo %session.TrigNum(%i).Name}}}
#ALIAS matchtrigg {#loop %session.Numtrigger {#if %match(%session.TriggerNum(%i).Name,%1) { #echo %session.TriggerNum(%i).Name}}}
matchtrig You
matchtrigg You
I get an parse error msg window that says:
Error parsing command:
No method/property name: Numtrigger
matchtrigg You
or Numtrig depending on which is used.
Any ideas? |

You were so close ;)
#ALIAS matchtrigger {#loop %session.NumTriggers {#if %match(%session.TriggerNum(%i).Name,%1) { #echo %session.TriggerNum(%i).Name}}} |

Tested, Also slightly re-wrote to remove syntax error remeber {}'s are your friend :P
#ALIAS MatchTrigger {
#IGNORE
#PRIORITY {#LOOP %session.NumTriggers {#IF %match( {%session.TriggerNum(%i).Name}, "%-1") {#ECHO %session.TriggerNum(%i).Name}}}
#IGNORE
} |
