Summary
Outputs debugging information to stdout
Prototype
lpeg.print (pattern)
Description
Sends debugging information to stdout.
This is not particularly easy to capture in a GUI application. To see it you could execute MUSHclient from the command line, like this:
mushclient.exe > lpeg_output.txt
Then inside MUSHclient use lpeg.print to print a pattern. Close MUSHclient and the file lpeg_output.txt should contain the debugging information.
For example:
00: char 'a'-> FAIL
01: set [(61-7a)]-> FAIL
10: end
