I have a multi-window system based on the chat window system Nick has floating around here. It uses ColourTell to send the messages to the different windows. I've done some looking around but haven't been able to find anything. Is there a way to detect/send the underlind/italic formatting of text as well as the colour?

The style runs should give you that. See this from the help:

Quote:


  • textcolour - the RGB colour of the text in this style (number)
  • backcolour - the RGB colour of the background (number)
  • text - the actual text
  • length - the length of the style run
  • style - style bits (bold=1, underline=2, blink=4) or'ed together (eg. bold underline would be 6)



The "style bits" are what you want.

To send them you might use AnsiNote:

Template:function=AnsiNote AnsiNote

The documentation for the AnsiNote script function is available online. It is also in the MUSHclient help file.



Use that in conjunction with ANSI:

Template:function=ANSI ANSI

The documentation for the ANSI script function is available online. It is also in the MUSHclient help file.
