#VERBATIM bug?
 
Quote:
VERBATIM

Syntax: #VERB [value]

Toggles the parsing mode. If value is specified, then it is used to set the parsing mode. Parsing is on if the value is non-zero.

VERBATIM example

#VERB

Same as selecting the Parse option from the Settings menu.


Ok, I tried #VERB and it did turn parsing off. However, after paring is off, #VERB 1 doesn't do anything. The command is sent to the mud instead of being interpreted by zMUD and therefor does not turn parsing back on. Parsing has to be manually turned back on either by clicking the parsing icon or by selecting it in the menu.

This isn't a bug. When parsing is turned off, everything in the command line is sent directly to the MUD without processing. That's what 'parsing off' means! Since nothing in the command line is processed, that includes #VERB 1. It would be a bug if this DID turn parsing back on.

#VERB 1 is for use in scripts, which aren't affected by the Parsing On/Off setting.

Ok, just wanted to make sure that it was working the way it was supposed to be. It just seemed a bit odd to me that parsing couldn't be turned back on the same way it was turned off from the command line.
