Using #TAG
 
After much hair pulling, I have decided to use #TAG to explicitly pass the name, description, exits, and prompt to the mapper.

I've read thru the help and looked at prior forum entries, but I am unclear on how to handle the desc and exit #TAG for my MUD. I get a single paragraph for all room info. The description and the exits are both multi-line, and in fact the end of the description may often share the same line as the start of the exits.

How do I handle the desc and exit #TAG for this case?

I thought I could capture the entire multiline desc in a variable and pass that in the #TAG command. Also, did the same for the exits. Trace show the variables are being set correctly, but the Mapper won't create the room. (Yes, I did reconfigure, but the reconfiguration didn't seen to pay attention to my #TAG triggers.

Awful hard to provide hints and ideas without a capture of a few sample rooms from your mud....
