| Hello
I'm Babochka and I love to play Achaea as Cymru, a Rajamalan Druid. Druids can harvest herbs which they use to brew elixirs.
I may come into a room and see the following:
The following plants are growing in this room:
A ginseng plant (ginseng) 26 left.
A myrrh bush (myrrh bush) 11 left.
A lobelia wildflower (lobelia) 21 left.
A purple coneflower (echinacea) 13 left.
A red elm tree (red elm) 20 left.
A wild ginger plant (wild ginger) 39 left.
I need to harvest the ginseng. What I would do is type 'harvest ginseng' 14 times! Can't I create an alias or something like:
harvest * *
for w = 1 to %1
harvest %2
next w
i would enter harvest 14 ginseng and it would harvest 14 ginseng with typing it 14 times
Can you help me? Thanks.

| Well, The wildcards need to be separated, since the two of them together like that amkes it impossible for MUSH to determine between the two.
My suggestion is something like this:
harvest *|*
then set it to send to script...
dim w
for w = 1 to %1
world.send "harvest %2"
next
Use: harvest 10|ginseng | | Top |

| For one thing, you can type Ctrl+R to repeat the last command, so you only need to type "harvest ginseng" once, and then hit Ctrl+R to keep doing it.
You can easily make an alias to to the "repeat n times" idea as well. |

| So as that post said (amongst other ideas), if you have speedwalking enabled, and "#" as your speedwalk prefix, all you would have to type is:
#14 (harvest ginseng) |

| | Which is actually more characters to type than the alias idea. :P | | Top |

| Yes, well I was demonstrating how you could do it without even needing an alias.
This alias here requires less typing again. For example, the "|" will be a pain to type:
<aliases>
<alias
match="^h (\d+) (\w+)$"
enabled="y"
regexp="y"
send_to="12"
sequence="100"
>
<send>
for i = 1 to %1
Send "harvest %2"
next
</send>
</alias>
</aliases>
Now you just type: h 5 ginseng
