Hi, im new in using Mushclient.
Great Client though.

Well Here's my problem.
I wanna capture my 'tells' in a specific window.
I gotta Plugin from a friend, but its only captureing single line tells.

Like this: (the tells looks exactly like this in the mud)
Dronur tells you, "I really don't know"

But if its a long tell it becomes two lines, and then its not working

Like this:
Dronur tells you, "I really don't know, ye gotta find that
out somehow by yer self, sorry can't
help you"

And I want it to Caputre the whole tell.
I really hope someone can help me with this.

My plugin looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE muclient>

what can I do to use both of:

omit_from_output="y"
multi_line="y"

lines_to_match="2"
match="^(?:> )?(?:([A-Z][a-z]*(?: \w*){0,3})\.\n)?(?:Sa|Jest) tutaj (.*) widoczn(?:e|ych) wyjsc(?:ia|ie)?\: (.*)\.\Z"

i cannot gag location name and exits
(first line: location name starting with [A-Z] ending with \.) and no more than 4 words
and second line is much better for capture:

Multi-line triggers cannot directly omit from output, however you can do it with a bit of scripting.

First, make the trigger call a script in your script file (which you need to create if you don't have one in the Scripting configuration), like this:


<triggers>
  <trigger
   enabled="y"
   lines_to_match="2"
   match="^(?:&gt; )?(?:([A-Z][a-z]*(?: \w*){0,3})\.\n)?(?:Sa|Jest) tutaj (.*) widoczn(?:e|ych) wyjsc(?:ia|ie)?\: (.*)\.\Z"

   multi_line="y"
   regexp="y"
   script="mytrigger"
   sequence="100"
  >
  </trigger>
</triggers>

Now in your script file you can delete two lines (which hopefully will be the ones that just matched), like this:


function mytrigger (name, line, wildcards)
  DeleteLines (2)
end -- mytrigger

See: http://www.gammon.com.au/scripts/doc.php?function=DeleteLines
