On using triggers and substitute
|
How can I change MUD output so that all occurences of SOUTH are replaced by S, and all occureneces of SOUTHWEST are replaced by SW? Thought I had it, but what I end up with is S for South and SW for SOUTHWEST, BUT southwestern (should not be changed at all) is replaced by SERN.

Just add triggers for those as well?
That should solve your problem.

Add a space or comma in your trigger so when it sees SOUTHWESTERN is does not try to change the SOUTH in SOUTHWESTERN.
Example.
#TR {SOUTH } {#SUB "S "}
#TR {SOUTHEASTERN } {#SUB "SE "}
Don't forget to add the space back into the #SUB command.

There's an %isnumber function but I couldn't find an %isletter one. This should do the same thing though.
#TR {South(?)} {#IF (((%ascii(%1) > 64) AND (%ascii(%1) < 91)) OR ((%ascii(%1) > 96) AND (%ascii(%1) < 123))) {} {#SUB S%1}}
You might need a second trigger for those instances when SOUTH is the final word on the line.
