I'm tryin to figure a way to find/filter rooms that have an exit that is not linked to anything. Anyone know how to do this? looks like in the "find room" comand on the mapper "edit" menu one can enter other criteria, but i have no idea what to enter here to see unlinked exits. Any help would be good.

I saw someone with a script that did this. I think it was Vijilante, but I can't find the post now.

EDIT: I've found it! It's here.

Don't be daunted by the size of the script. The pertinent part is the very first alias, Uscan. You'll notice how it goes through every room checking every exit in that room to see if %roomlink=-2 for that room. If you read the documentation for %roomlink, you'll see that -2 is an unlinked link. This'll be very slow, but it'll do the job. It could probably be optimised with local variables to improve the speed too.
