MXP and SUB
 
Ok, I want to be able to type look and make the things I see into links that will send the look command to them when I click on it...

This is the trigger and such

You also see a pile of rusty nails, a shadowling, an Empath donation shelf with some stuff on it, a bucket of viscous gloop, some smoothly worked stairs of golden oak, and an Empath renown scroll.

Now, I have a normal trigger that fires on You also see that starts a class, This is the class script

#CLASS {Main|Look} {enable}
#TRIGGER {({a|an|some}) (*){,|.}} {#SUB {~<send ~"look %2~" ~"Right-click for options|Fresh|Scar|Internal|Internal Scar~"~>%1 %2~</send~>}}
#TRIGGER {.} {#T- {Main|Look}}
#CLASS 0


What it SHOULD do is make every one into a link that will look at that object when I click on it but instead it turns the You also see line into one large link.... Any help would be great

That period trigger is to close the class when it hits the period

You are going to have to do this another way. The problem is that the * is greedy, so it will match everything until the period and then the period matches. What you will need to do is to first store the line into a variable, and then process it to insert the SEND's where they should go. The best way would be to convert it into a stringlist by replacing the commans with | and then work on each item in the list.

Ok, Might you give me some examples, Stringlists are one thing I have barely used at all. Maybe I should start using them more
