I'm going to try and explain this the best I can but I'm very very new to Zmud. I have a current trigger to blink red when I see tells you: in the MUD. I would like for Whoever tells you: <full message> including all lines to blink red, and I have no idea how to do this at all.

I also have what's called a clan comm which is basically an alias that gives tells to ALL people in my clan. Which means I get lots of tells. I would like for a trigger to pick up KOR and blink blue on the entire like and put <CLAN COMM> at the beginning, and this is the format it comes in Whoever tells you: {KOR} <message>
I would like EVERYTHING in that message to blink blue

Could someone please help me?
Thanks.

#trigger {%1 tells you~:} {#if (%1 = ~{KOR~}) {
#sub {%ansi(high, blue, blink)CLANCOMM %line}} {
#sub {%ansi(high, red, blink)%line}}

Should work.. Atleast in my head :)

Sorry, but you haven't provided enough information to make ALL lines of the message blink red (or blue). The basic principle for multi-line action is to trigger on the channel-beginning (tells you:) to start the blink/color change by enabling a trigger that matches everything (pattern is *), and to trigger on the channel-ending (unknown) to stop it by disabling that trigger.

For single-line:
#TR {tells you: (%x)} {#IF (%1 = "{KOR}") {#CO blink,hi,blue} {#CO blink,hi,red}}
I suspect a blinking blue line is sufficient identification without CLANCOMM. Since I prefer #COLOR to #SUB, I've left it out.

%1 really shouldn't be used in the PATTERN of a trigger, and {KOR} came AFTER tells you:, not BEFORE it.
