I'm trying to make it so I envenom my weapons with the right venoms just before I attack with them. Right now I use a simple set of aliases to set the variable, for instance with the venoms delphinium, aconite, and curare, it looks like this:

#alias 1 {envenom=delphinum|delphinum}
#alias 2 {envenom=aconite|curare}

and I have a lot of these aliases which work well with the following

#alias envenom {
~envenom @weapon1 with %item( @envenom, 1)
~envenom @weapon2 with %item( @envenom, 2)
dsl @target
}

What I want to do is have to not have to enter an alias to change the venoms every time I attack. It would be ideal if I could have one alias that would put say 5 pairs of venoms into a string instead of a single pair, and would have the venom pairs removed after used.

We would need output.. I.E.

#VAR venomlist {delphinum|curare}
#VAR usevenoms {curare}
#TRIGGER {^Your blade is dripping with the delphinum venom} {#DELITEM useVenoms Delphinum}

Then add a checkvenoms to compare the venomlist (all the venoms you want added) to the used list

Its much like a spellup script. However without any output from the mud it makes it hard to help you.

The only output that comes from the mud would be something like

You rub some delphinium on a rapier.

I have a rapier in each hand and would like to use a different venom on each rapier most of the time.
When I hit an alias I would like to be able to

envenom @weapon1 with delphinium
envenom @weapon2 with curare
dsl target (/the attack with rapiers)

next time I attack, instead of having to hit an alias to envenom with different venoms, or using the same venoms over again I would like to

envenom @weapon1 with aconite
envenom @weapon2 with delphinium
dsl target

Typically, you'd want to change your venoms based on the way the fight's going at that time, so auto-selecting venoms may not be a good idea. You could always do what I do and use buttons and/or macros for quick selection and attack. If you'd like to setup your alias to pick venoms from a list and cycle through them, you could do something like the following:

Would the second @weapon be @weapon2 rather than @weapon1 in your code Larkin?

That is exactly what I was looking to do, thanks so much.
