| I'd like to get a realtime 'who' list that I can keep in a seperate window. Is this possible? I know how to get chats and such in a notepad window, but I'm just not sure how to do such a thing with a who list that's updated in real time.
Any thoughts? | | Top |

You'd have to constantly be typing who (not that thats a problem, just a limitation) because it can't update unless you keep giving it more information.
Unless of course, you had global echos of people signing on/off, then you'd be able to either add them to your list manually, or send who again. So not really real time, but as close as you can expect from a mud, unless you want to do nothing but spam who.
Getting the information to another window isnt too hard.
If your who list has a border (or at least a top and a bottom, just anything that is ALWAYS there) then you can catch everything in between that (whether this is one multiline trigger, or three triggers that toggle each other) and send it to another window (and omit it). If you want to omit it, youre probably better off going with the three triggers, since it wont omit until the end of the multiline trigger, and all of the sudden youll lose X lines, where X is probably a good chunk of your screen.
First trigger starts enabled, it turns on the second two, it matches your opening line.
Second trigger matches all the intermediate lines (you might need a couple of triggers if you have different formats, or whatever, just enough triggers to match everything except the last line).
The last trigger turns off the second one (and itself), and makes sure the first one is back on (since you might want to have it disable itself, it depends on your circumstances).
You can also have the first trigger clear your notepad, so you start fresh each time (use replacenotepad instead of append).
...I had something else to mention, but I dont remember anymore. |
