I'm trying to capture all public IC channels in a floating window,
and all public OOC channels in a separate window.

Right now it looks a little like this:

#TRIGGER {{auction|gossip|Kingdom|clan}{s: |: |s | }['(]} {#CAP IC_Captures} {Cap}

#TRIGGER {{quest|OOC|oclan|grat}{s: |: |s | }['(]} {#CAP OOC_Captures} {Cap}

However there is an 'OOC Kingdom' channel that shows up in both. How do I get oking to show in in the ooc window and NOT in the IC window?

And another IC channel that I can't get to work, because it has parenthesis in it:

(Thaxanos) Galik: (Dwarvish) 'Hail, Thaxanos'

thax Greetins, Thane
(Thaxanos) 'Greetins, Thane'

Any ideas?

You should set up the triggers exactly as they are, so if each trigger is surrounded by parenthesis, include those.

Escape the special characters with a tilde ~ character.

If they aren't surrounded in parenthesis, then show us the actual game output.

Kingdom channel looks like this when I use it:

Kingdom: 'Lonelae in th'mountain tadae'

This is what it looks like when somebody else talks on it:

Olokia Kingdom: 'Aye this be the way it is'

Then there's oking-

You OOC Kingdom: 'morning'
Olokia OOC Kingdom: 'hello there'

Kingdom is IC, obviously, and oking is OOC, and I like to capture them in seperate windows. Problem is, I'm getting oking in the IC window because it fits the pattern for kingdom. I need kingdom to match {some name Kingdom: 'some text'}

I have a similar problem with You tell somebody 'something', which is usually IC, vs. You tell the group 'something', which is primarily OOC.

You should probably make separate triggers for each event, then, and make use of begin/endline characters. This will make them easier to maintain and easier to debug.

#TRIGGER {^Kingdom: '*'$} {#CAP IC_Captures}
#TRIGGER {^%w Kingdom: '*'$} {#CAP IC_Captures}

#TRIGGER {^%w OOC Kingdom: '*'$} {#CAP OOC_Captures}

There we go, that's what I was looking for. I think I can use that to get the others working now. Thanks.
