If you resize, and push the mouse too far to the left (ie. past the top left corner, in a NW direction) then it loses the correct synchronization with the resize corner.

I'm attempting to adapt your chat script to fit my mudding needs and am having trouble understanding your triggers. It is quite different from your mud. The main channel is OOC and looks like this:

Gheshin OOCs: 'Hm'
You OOC: 'Hm'
[OOC]: You sigh.

If you could just tell me how to get at least one of them working properly with your script I'm sure I could figure the rest out myself, but I've tried what seems to be 50 different variations on triggers in the file and can't manage to make it work.

Doh! You know I had that on my list of things to deal with and then I forgot. Thanks for catching it.

Edit: fixed now.

I think the problem you're having is that the very first part of the chat() function in my script is specific for Aardwolf, because we have special tags on all channel output to make scripting easier.
You need to remove the block that says

    -- strip out the tag
    tag_length = string.find(styles[1].text,"}")
    styles[1].text = string.sub(styles[1].text,tag_length+1)
    styles[1].length = styles[1].length-tag_length

That block strips everything out up to the first instance of "}", which is the last character of our channel tags. Since you don't have the tag, it strips everything. Which means you get left with nothing.

Then the following trigger, as an example, will capture "You OOC: blah blah blah"

    <trigger
    enabled="y"
    match="^You OOC:(?<msg>.*)"
    regexp="y"
    script="chats"
    omit_from_output="y"
    sequence="100"
    ></trigger>

And maybe make the timestamp grayer (like in the older chat window). It sort of hits you in the eye.

And have an option to omit the original from the main window (oh I see that is in the plugin as an alias). But hey, if we are doing GUI, may as well have a menu. :-)

I didn't figure that plain dim white would hit anyone in the eye, but I'm down with making it customizable. :)

Perfect, that is actually what the problem was. Thanks for helping me sort this out.

Edit: I don't know if this is for everyone as I run MUSHClient inside an emulator on Linux, but when I try to click the up/down of the scrollbar it gives me script errors. And when I try to click the shuttle, it closes the program altogether. Also, after resizing the window once, it refuses to let me do it again. Still a better plugin than what I was using before even with all that.

I'm using it in WINE right now in Ubuntu 9.10, and everything works fine for me. What errors are you seeing? One thing you probably need to do is get the newest copy of wait.lua from the repository and put it in your lua folder. That will prevent assertion errors when you click on the arrows without being connected to the MUD. Also make sure you have the latest copy of movewindow.lua from the repository. And when downloading files from the repository, make sure you get the RAW text files and not something filled with web markup.

The "requirement" of 4.40 should probably actually be 4.52 :D

Oh, I forgot. Also, all the TelnetOption stuff is specific to Aardwolf. You should remove all those lines too and remove the following...

-- pull in telnet option handling
dofile (GetPluginInfo (GetPluginID (), 20) .. "telnet_options.lua")

I updated wait.lua and movewindow.lua, and that fixed my problem with the shuttle causing a crash. The shuttle works perfectly now, I can resize whenever I like, but I still get assertion errors after clicking the up/down arrows. Are there other files I should update?

You need to tell me what error you're getting.

Make sure you have timers enabled. There's a checkbox in the window that pops up if you do Shift-Control-0.

By the way, there's a new version of my script available at:
http://code.google.com/p/aardwolfclientpackage/source/browse/trunk/Aardwolf_Chat_Capture_mw.xml
Don't forget to customize it for your MUD.

It now also requires this file to be put into your plugins folder. It deals with converting style runs to plain text with injected color codes. The contents of this file are customized for Aardwolf. In order to get color-code copying to work for your MUD you may have to change it.
http://aardwolfclientpackage.googlecode.com/files/aardwolf_colors.lua

Share and enjoy.

Totally new to this stuff, so I don't know how to fix this. I just downloaded and tried to run your plugin, but I get this error:


Error number: 0
Event: Run-time error
Description: cannot open D:\MUSHclient\worlds\plugins\telnet_options.lua: No such file or directory

stack traceback:

[C]: in function 'dofile'

[string "Plugin"]:44: in main chunk
Called by: Immediate execution


Any pros able to tell me what's wrong?
