Hi,
the Braille Reader plugin gave me the idea that I could also put otherimportant text from the MUD output in a separate miniwindow, to keep pretty repititive but important info like the prompt out of the general output (also reduces amount of text I need to read in the braille reader miniwindow). My idea was to create a window at the bottom right, which contains the prompt info I need. To achieve that, I created another plugin, and copied most of the Braille Reader window settings over (at least what I considered relevant for my miniwindow). Maybe I made a mistake, maybe I'm still missing a required part, or maybe the positioning of the miniwindow doesn't work this way -- either way, the text of the miniwindow is showing nowhere onscreen. Maybe you could assist me in finding a good position for the window, or tell me which mistake I made setting up the window?
Here's the plugin:

This plugin gets the prompt of the MUD and removes it from the output, instead displaying it in a miniwindow.
This is useful for me as a deafblind user of the Braille Reader plugin; Maybe it's useful to others as well.
To customize,
- change the value of the trigger's match attribute to match your MUD's prompt.
- change the outputstring variable below at the start of the script.
- insert all expected wildcards in the parameters of s:format (see below).
For each wildcard, there must be a %s in the outputstring variable, or %q if you want the wildcard to appear in quotes.
Example:
match="^(\d+)\/(\d+) h (.*)$"
outputstring = "%s/%s hp|%q"
local text = outputstring:format (wildcards[1], wildcards[2], wildcards[3])
Would match:
60/300 h Not Poisoned
And lead to the output:
60/300 hp|"Not Poisoned"
