Capture lines with []
|
Greetings,
I tried to capture lines and send them to a different window with the following prefix:
[Abenteuer:Ormarr]
The [] and : are always present, and the text before and after the : changes.
I managed to capture lines before but as soon as it comes to [] I really have a problem to get it going.
If someone could help me out with the right trigger I would appreciate it.
Thank you. |

A simple trigger pattern of "[*:*]" should match those lines:
| Code: |
<trigger priority="10" id="1">
<pattern>[*:*]</pattern>
<value>#cap mywindow</value>
</trigger>
|
If you need to specifically capture and use the values before and after the colon, use the pattern "[(*):(*)]". |

Don't you need a ~ before each and every bracket? If not, I have some work to do on my triggers. ^^
| Code: |
| #trig {~[(%w):(%w)~]} {#cap mywindow} |

Yes, actually it would be better to put the tilde before the square brackets. Square brackets are used in trigger patterns to specify a range value. However, I did test the pattern I gave, and it works, probably because Cmud recognizes that it cannot be a range value with asterisks inside. But you are correct, it is better to get in the habit of using a tilde, ~, before any square brackets in trigger patterns.

You didn't do much testing. ;) As long as it's not more ranges or a stringlist pattern, any wildcard contained in a range will be evaluated as a wildcard. So, basically, [*:*] is the same as [*] which itself is the same as *. |
