what im trying to do is capture a line IF its a certain color.. ( lets say red)

so for example

colored in red: Room 1234
colored in blue: you see exits leading west, south, east

how would i make a trig that captures Room 1234 and store it someplace like in a variable?

im trying to use the #tag name and #tag exit commands in zmud so i can get mapper to work with my mud.

so basicly i want to capture a line if its red, and store it someplace, but i want it to refresh and be able to detect the next
occurance of this color and replace the old line in the variable with this fresh one... and the next and the next...

OR someone could just tell me how to #TAG name and #TAG exit based on color =)

If forget what numbers corespond to what colors. You can readily make triggers to capture what you want and be color sensitive.
In the Settings Editor make a new trigger.
Set the pattern to ^(*)$.
Set the commands to #TAG name {%1}, or #TAG exits {%1}
Then click the options tab.
Select the Line Color option and set the color to whatever is appropiate.

The only caveat to using TAG for anything is you must TAG your prompt as well. As always reconfigure after creating triggers that change the mapper behavior.

If you have a prompt trigger already, just put the line "#tag prompt" in the code. Here's a potential trigger, in case you don't have it:

#trigger {(%d)h, (%d)m (?)(?)(?)} {#TAG prompt;#variable Health %1;#variable Mana %2}
