So i need to store stuff into a key/record list. I've figured this part out:
#ADDKEY list {key} {record}

Now, I need to match something to the list. say my record list looks like:
bat|kick|dog|punch
and i have bat stored in the variable mob.

why dosn't this work:

%iskey(@mob, @list) - shouldn't this return true because bat is a key in the list?

I need to be able to match a variable against the list and if the variable is a key, then i need to pull the record out. so in this case I would match @mob and get the command 'kick'

Question

Could also work it like:

#ADDKEY List MobIndex
#ADDITEM List.MobIndex Dog
#ADDKEY List Dog 1

#IF (%ismember(%1,@List.MobIndex)) {#SH List.%1

I thought %ismember is for lists, not records

Yes %ismember is for lists and not records. However Ton's code has already referenced into the record through the dot notation...minor correction of missing close brace:

#IF (%ismember(%1,@List.MobIndex)) {#SH List.%1}
