Color Confusion
|
I am in a clan on my MUD and I want to color all the clan members' names green. I have done that. But now, for example, I have colored the name Trig green. But I do not want the T-R-I-G in trigger green, too. How can I set it to only color the word green, not all instances of that color combination?

Simply put a space after trig, so the pattern is "trig "

You could also employ range matching
#TRIGGER {{foo|bar|fred|wilma}[ .,?!]} {#CW 10}

Thank you, Ton, that works great. Perhaps youcould enlighten me about the word being wholly contained within another. Example: I want Amon's name green, but not the amon in Diamond vial, for example.

Can't think a way to add all cases.
Start of line
#TRIGGER {^{foo|bar|fred|wilma}[ .,?!]} {#CW 10}
End of line
#TRIGGER {[ .,?!]{foo|bar|fred|wilma}$} {#CW 10}
In a line
#TRIGGER {[ .,?!]{foo|bar|fred|wilma}[ .,?!]} {#CW 10}

Also check the case-sensitive flag in the options tab, and put the names into the variable that way. In most cases that alone will fix it for about 80% of the names people use.
