| OK, I will try the suppression idea.
However, the sequence is not quite as you listed. I do not get the status line unless (1) I manually hit Enter key, or (2) I get a chat line.
Quote: (OOC) Orion: Hoy.
H:Healthy, S:Energetic, K:Energetic, F: 100, Camday night
(OOC) Namino blinks.
H:Healthy, S:Energetic, K:Energetic, F: 100, Camday night
(OOC) Koreabard: great, thanks
H:Healthy, S:Energetic, K:Energetic, F: 100, Camday night
Basically, the Chat line seems to end with a newline, which gets processed by MUSHclient and sent back to the MUD, which then echoes the status line.
Thus, it seems that the suppression of output to the main client window is not complete -- the newline character is allowed. | Top |

| There is nothing in that first plugin that sends anything back to the MUD.
You said you get the status line after a chat line, and the problem occurs after a chat line appears. |

| Hmmm. OK. Given the response, I'll ask a different question.
Given that I receive two lines from the mud, like this
(OOC)Sometext \n
H:Status \n
How do I suppress the newline (\f or \r or \n, I don't know which) in the original window when I send the text to the RoD Chats window?
I've tried a simple trigger (to omit from output) based on ^H:.* and it suppresses everything except the new line. (That is, when status line comes from MUD, I end up with a blank line in the client main window.)
Sorry to be dense... And thanks for your patience and help. | Top |

| Based on your previous example:
(OOC) Orion: Hoy.\n
H:Healthy, S:Energetic, K:Energetic, F: 100, Camday night\n
\n
(OOC) Namino blinks.\n
H:Healthy, S:Energetic, K:Energetic, F: 100, Camday night\n
\n
(OOC) Koreabard: great, thanks\n
H:Healthy, S:Energetic, K:Energetic, F: 100, Camday night\n
I have added the newlines to show the idea. I assume you are just sitting there, and some chats come in.
Your trigger moves the chat to the other window, but, per chat line, you are left with two other lines - one blank, and one status.
One approach to get rid of the blank lines is to make another trigger, like this:
<triggers>
<trigger
enabled="y"
match="^$"
omit_from_output="y"
regexp="y"
sequence="100"
>
</trigger>
</triggers>
That will omit every blank line you get (except ones you type yourself). To make this work you must go to File -> Global Preferences -> General and check "Regular expressions can match on an empty string".

| I have multiple worlds reporting to the same window, using the plugin on the first page.
And I'm just wondering, how can i record what world it originated from, and possibly timestamp it.
For example. lets say i have 3 worlds. A B and C
A is the Chat_world
and i get a message on B, instead of
Whoever tells you 'whatever'
being sent to the chat_world it would show something like
(Recieved from B, at Hour/minute) Whoever tells you 'whatever' | Top |

| The first page? Well in the middle is the stuff that sends the text:
if w then -- if present
for _, v in ipairs (styles) do
w:ColourTell (RGBColourToName (v.textcolour),
RGBColourToName (v.backcolour),
v.text)
end -- for each style run
w:Note ("") -- wrap up line
end -- world found
You would need to change it to something like:
if w then -- if present
w:ColourTell ("white", "", "Received from: " .. WorldName ())
w:ColourTell ("white", "", os.date (" at %H:%M : "))
for _, v in ipairs (styles) do
w:ColourTell (RGBColourToName (v.textcolour),
RGBColourToName (v.backcolour),
v.text)
end -- for each style run
w:Note ("") -- wrap up line
end -- world found

| Hi. I'm a newbie to all of this, and well I'm having issues with the plugin. Everytime someone says something I get a huh? in my main window. I copied the plugin as directed, but I used my own triggers, just adjusted them as needed.
I'm not sure what i've done wrong to keep getting this huh? across my screen.
These are my triggers, maybe this is where the problem is? I set it up to move pages, and channel chats.
<triggers>
<trigger
enabled="y"
match="^.+ pages\: .+$"
omit_from_output="y"
regexp="y"
script="redirect"
sequence="100"
>
<send>%0</send>
</trigger>
<trigger
enabled="y"
match="^\[.+\] .+$"
omit_from_output="y"
regexp="y"
script="redirect"
sequence="100"
>
<send>%0</send>
</trigger>
<trigger
enabled="y"
match="^From afar, .+$"
omit_from_output="y"
regexp="y"
script="redirect"
sequence="100"
>
<send>%0</send>
</trigger>
<trigger
enabled="y"
match="^Long distance to .+$"
omit_from_output="y"
regexp="y"
script="redirect"
sequence="100"
>
<send>%0</send>
</trigger>
<trigger
enabled="y"
match="^You paged .+$"
omit_from_output="y"
regexp="y"
script="redirect"
sequence="100"

<send>%0</send>
</trigger>

| Remove the %0 from the "send" box. What you are doing is echoing back the chat to the MUD, so for example if you get:
Your trigger sends back to the MUD:
So naturally it replies "huh?". |

| OK, thanks - and now can you copy and paste an example of the output that causes it? (eg. From afar, Nick sighs).
That way I know which trigger is being used. |

| When you changed the plugin, did you reinstall it? Simply changing the file won't do anything while it is loaded in memory. In the plugin list, click the Reinstall button to do that. |
