Coloring specific lines of text
|
Hello,
I'm new to CMUD and I'm trying to figure out what it can do. So far I have been able to color specific lines using keywords I specifiy. The problem I'm having is there is a line that matches a keyword, but I don't want it to color the line.
Here's my current setup:
| Code: |
Pattern: %w
#COLOR {says ^~(OOC~)} orange
#COLOR {exclaims} orange
#COLOR {asks} orange
|
I want it to color the line orange when the work says shows up, but I don't want it to mess with the line when the line contains says (OOC). Ultimately, I want the lines of 5 or so words/phrases flagged when they are said.
Any pointers?
Thanks,
Kage_ |

You, my friend, are looking for the '^' not pattern Matching character. Something like this should help.
| Code: |
| TRIGGER {says {^(OOC)}} {#COLOR orange} |
Something like that should do the trick and color the lines that don't have "OOC" in them. |

Now if I wanted to stack several in one trigger, would the above work and add {^(OOC)} to the says entry?

if you have several, then i suggest an unnamed variable embedded in the pattern
#TR {says {^{(OOC)|option2|etc}}} {#CO orange} |
