You can do all kinds of things by stringing commands together and using
grep, head, tail, and various other commands built-in to the alias set of
commands.  One of these days I really need to pull out all of my aliases,
and do a write up on them and get it posted somewhere just to show folks
what's possible, because I don't think folks realize how much information
you can get yourself using the alias built-in commands and massage
capabilities of the mud.

Re: [Audyssey] command suggestions for Alteraeon

Hi Dentin.

A general keyword "todo" filter for quests would be much appreciated. I'm 
loving all the different quests on Arcase, definitely far less of a drag or 
a grind fest than last time, and having to not have to sit through goodness 
knows how many done quests being read before I get to the next one on the 
list would be good indeed.


All the best,

Dark.

Re: [Audyssey] command suggestions for Alteraeon

[john]

Unfortunately, there's really no substitute for grep.
Its one of those commands you should really learn to use, because it has so 
very many uses, in so many different situations.
Personally, I'd say that grep is probably one of the most useful utility 
commands on the mud.
Examples include things like:
at a shop, list all | grep -i soul (displays all soulstones)
leaderboard  2000 | grep -i  (finds a person's position on a 
leaderboard, and displays only their name)
clan storage list | grep piece of wood | wc (tells me how many deanimated 
wood woads are left in the clan storage locker)
l in  | grep heal | wc (I was using this last night in place of 
count to tell how many heal scrolls I'd successfully created)

The uses of grep are so varied and many that I'm actually having trouble 
coming up with specific examples.
If you're struggling with it, I'd highly recommend going over the helpfile 
with a fine-toothed comb, because it's most certainly time well spent.

Hi.

I've had a lot of fun playing alter recently, doing quests on arcase
(finding those ships in the archipelligo was a pest), however there are
two
things i was wondering if Dentin could consider adding.

The first, is a way to review what quests on arcase I've yet to do? when 
I

use "quests arcase" I get a huge! list with some done and some not. I
know there is some sort of scripting workaround, but I never got that one
to
work, so something like "quests arcase todo" (or slo, kordan or anywhere
else for that matter), would be really nice if possible.

The second is an odd request.

I generally don't like brief description mode since I enjoy the 
atmosphere
of the game and reading about what is where, however there are occasions 
I

want a quick brief view, for example when I'm looking for something or
trying to see whether there is a given object there (like the ships or
those
earth totems in the tainted forest).
Yes, I know I could just toggle brief on and off, but generally i want 
the

full descriptions rather more often thatn the brief mode.
One thing I've seen in some games was a glance command. This affectively
gave a brief description, ie, just room title, objects and who's there,
but
without having the brief mode on, rather like the way the look command
gives
the long description in brief mode.

As I aid, I'm probably more unusual in wanting the brief description less
often than the verbose one, but there are times it'd be useful, and I
assume
it wouldn't be a hard fix to add the glance command or something similar.

If everyone things this is a dreadful idea, fare enough, though I admit 
in

some muds like six dragons I found I used it quite a lot.

Really enjoying the game.

You may have your punctuation set to a low level and be missing things. The 
command is:
quest Kordan | (bar - shift backslash) grep -i (dash i) todo

Hi John.

For some reason it never works for me, maybe it's all the punctuation, hence
why it'd be nice if there was just a streight forward command such as quest
location todo, actually I'm a little confused why there isn't given that
there is a way to see what quests you've done :D.

All the best,

Re: [Audyssey] command suggestions for Alteraeon

[dark]

Hi.

That makes sense, though with agro mobs I just usually hit escape to shut 
the speech up when I get to a new location and wait to see if my minians 
jump on anything before reading the long description.  I actually like long 
descriptions when walking around, otherwise I'd pretty much have to type 
look in every single room with a none agro mob which could get tiresome.


The glance command is more what I'd like when looking for none agro mobs or 
objects, or just wanting a reminder of who is in a room when i've just done 
something else but don't want the full long description again.


All the best,

Dark.

Hi.


When you turn brief on, using the look command on alter doesn't give you 
the long version. To do that, you leave brief mode turned off, and turn on 
autobrief. That way, when you walk, you get to skip long description so 
you can determine quickly if you might have blundered into a character who 
may or may not be aggressive for instance, and if you want the long 
description you just type l, and you'll get the long version. That's what 
I do. Generally speaking, when walking, in my opinion it's best not to 
have to listen to the long desc before you get to hear who' or what is in 
the room with you, so I would recommend using autobrief.
