On the mud I play there is a healing class called empaths who touch their patients and then transfer their wounds to them.
What I was wondering is if there is a way to take this text below and put the wounds into variables or a list or database..whichever is faster.

the wounds come up something like this:

HEAD:
Fresh External: cuts and bruises - minor
Fresh Internal: minor swelling and bruising - more than minor
Scars External: tiny scratches - negligible
Scars Internal: constant twitching - harmful

And it repeats like that for each body part.. right and left hands, arms, legs, eyes, chest, back, abdomen, tail, wing, skin

Anyway we could do this easily?

If needed I can supply a direct cut and paste from the game tomorrow.

What exactly are you trying to do with the list? Are you trying to find the parts that are in most need of healing first down to the parts that don't need healing at all or did you just want to save this information for future use or what?

Well for now just store them and possibly move em to a different window named Heal. I can than create an alias to go through and heal all these things. Healing in Dragonrealms is a bit different.

First I need to touch the patient to obtain all there afflictions. Than I need to TAKE the wounds like so.

Take soanso head
Take soanso head scar
Take soanso int head
Take soanso int head scar

But for now just put em in a string list or possibly a string list for each body part.. like

head="fresh external|fresh internal|scar external|scar internal"
Than I can make my alias check the variables and heal what is needed.. I can do that part no problem.. stumped on how to get all these variables stored though. I have 6.25a Beta so I could prolly use conditionals on my triggers.
