Parenthesis keep re-appearing!
|
Whenever I run this it puts paranthesis around it and I don't want it to :(.
#IF (@name = %1) {
#DELITEM arc_name @name
#ADDITEM arc_name |r|%1|c|
}
the || are used for color in the mud I play, when ever it goes off it puts () around @name, anyway to make this go away? |

Around which @name does it put parenthesis? Does it still work with the parenthesis? Have you tried using %1 instead of @name in the #DELITEM?

No, there isn't anyway to make this go away. This is how zMUD indicates nested lists.
| is the list-separator character which isn't changeable. When you include it in a list-item, that item becomes a nested list. You'll have to find some other way of sending color-codes to your MUD. |

#ADDITEM arc_name %replace (%replace (|r|%1|c| , ")", %null),"(",%null)
Try this. Im not familiar with nested lists but you might get lucky and no i didnt test it |

The parentheses are added internally, Morgair, so you wouldn't be able to remove them via the %replace() functions in an #ADDITEM command. However, since for list variables the divider is literally a | and not a special, unprintable character like it is with DB record variables, you can just remove it yourself after the list has been added to.
Listname = %replace(%replace(@Listname,"(",""),")","") |

Try this:
| Code: |
#IF (@name = %1) {
#DELITEM arc_name @name
#ADDITEM arc_name :r:%1:c:
}
|
Then to retrieve an item from @arcname use this:
| Code: |
#var xName {%replace(%item(@arc_name,@N),":","|")}
|
Now (assuming you set @N appropriately) @xName will be |r|%1|c|.
This is what I do every time I want to nest lists. |

It only puts the parenthesis around it when you expand the list as a regular variablelike #show @list;
When you retrieve it using the %item , or %pop function it returns the item just as you added it,with no parenthesis. |
