My first post just started using zmud and its scripts..life could be very easy...but..
Heres the problem:
When i type password it gives a list of passwords like this:

blah land of nod
blah2 land of pixies and fairies
blah3 etc...

I want to be able to type password then capture the list of passwords and destinations and put them into a popup button menu ie the button will have a password written on it and then the destination written beside it...I have tried but my triggers flop in syntax and splitting up the lines never works...please help and I will be eternally grateful..

Thanks,
Dev

Are there any lines that preceed the typing of the password? Are there any prompts for the password? Are there any lines that indicate a successfully entered password? Are there any othere texts you wish to send to the mud? Is there any other information that you think might be needful for me to write the appropiate triggers and script code for you?

What I am really trying to say is I could easily write a script to capture all mud output, then put it in a popup box. From there I have to know whether to just send your selection or hold on to that information till later. I have to have all these questions answered before I can write it for you.

The password works by typing "Go <password>". The password is not actually asked for it is just input by the user usually after checking the password lists. If you can write me a script to do this then I can work out how to perform other string manipulations to menus myself I just need a good example to work from...

Thanks Vijilante,

#CLASS {GoCommand} {enable}
#TR {^(%w) land of (*)$} {#VAR {%replace("%2"," ","_")} "%1" "_nodef" {GoCommand};#EXEC %concat("#MENU {"%2"} {go @",%replace("%2"," ","_"),"} {GoCommand|Menus} {}")}
#MENU {Go} {} "" {Menus}
#CLASS 0
#CLASS {GoCommand|Menus} {enable|menu}
#ALARM {+1} {#ECHO Classes succesfully created.}
#CLASS 0

This creates a right-click menu for you by the name of go, with a submenu listing each item it has found. Since you didn't even asnwer half of my questions it is pretty dumb and likely to capture wildly inaccurate information. Enjoy.
