MUSHclient scripting

Description of MUSHclient world function: world.ExportXML

Name	ExportXML
Type	Method
Summary	Exports a world item in XML format
Prototype	`BSTR ExportXML(short Type, BSTR Name);` View list of data type meanings
Description	This lets you export one trigger, timer, alias, macro, keypad item or variable in XML format. This is symmetrical with the ImportXML function - a trigger exported with ExportXML will be syntactically correct for importing with ImportXML. However, it may not actually import if, say, there is a clash where two triggers both have the same label. This would let you send triggers etc. from one world to another in an automated way, or from one client to another if you built some chat scripting around these functions. The various types of things are numbered: 0 = trigger 1 = alias 2 = timer 3 = macro 4 = variable 5 = keypad Note: Available in version 3.41 onwards.
VBscript example	`world.Note world.ExportXML (0, "mytrigger")`
Jscript example	`world.Note (world.ExportXML (0, "mytrigger"));`
PerlScript example	`Note (ExportXML (0, "mytrigger"));`
Python example	`world.Note (world.ExportXML (0, "mytrigger"));`
Lua example	`Note (ExportXML (0, "mytrigger"))`
Returns	`The XML text of the nominated item. If the "type" is not valid, or the item cannot be found, then the return value is the empty string.`
Introduced in version	3.41
