</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         What is TinTin++?
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         TinTin++ is a client program specialized to help playing muds. This is
         a souped up version of TINTIN III with many new features.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Giving Credit Where Credit is Due
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         None of this work would be possible, without the work done by Peter
         Unold. He was the author of TINTIN III, the base of TinTin++. Hats off
         to ya Peter. You started the ball rolling.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Introduction
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         If you're new to TinTin++ a good place to start is the introduction,
         which should be linked below.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Related</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: <a href='#INTRODUCTION'>introduction</a>

</span><span style='color:#FF5'>         INTRODUCTION

</span><span style='color:#AAA'>         On this page you'll find an introduction to using TinTin++. Additional
         information can be found in the individual help sections.
</span><span style='color:#5F5'>
         Starting and Ending
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         The syntax for starting TinTin++ is: ./tt++ [command file]

         Read more about the command file in the files section below. Remember
         one thing though. All actions, aliases, substitutions, etc, defined
         when starting up TinTin++ are inherited by all sessions.

         If you want to exit TinTin++ type '#end' or press ctrl-d on an empty
         line.

         For the WinTin++ users, if you want to paste text use shift-insert,
         text is automatically copied upon selection. This is typical Linux
         behavior, but it can take some getting used to.

         Basic features
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         I'll start by explaining some of the very basic and important features:

         All TinTin++ commands starts with a '#'.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #help -- #help is a client command, and isn't send to the server.

         All TinTin++ commands can be abbreviated when typed.

         #he -- Typing #he is the same as typing #help though it's suggested to
         use at least 3 letter abbreviations just in case another command is
         added that starts with 'he'.

         All commands can be separated with a ';'.

         n;l dragon;s;say Dan Dare is back! -- do these 4 commands
         There are 3 ways ';'s can be overruled.

         &bsol;say Hello ;) -- Lines starting with a '&bsol;' aren't parsed by TinTin++.
         say Hello &bsol;;) -- The escape character can escape 1 letter.
         #config verbatim on -- Everything is sent as is except '#' commands.
</span><span style='color:#5F5'>
         Connecting to a server
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
Command</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #session </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>session name</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>server address</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>port</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         Example: #session someone tintin.sourceforge.net 4321

         You can have more than one session, in which case you can switch
         between sessions typing #&lt;session name&gt;.

         You can get a list of all sessions by typing: #session. The current
         active session is marked with (active). Snooped sessions with
         (snooped). MCCP sessions (compression) with (mccp 2) and (mccp 3).

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>
         Split
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
Command</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #split

         The split command will create a separated input and output area.

         Using the #prompt command you can capture the prompt and place it on
         the split line. To get rid of the split interface you can use #unsplit
         which will restore the terminal settings to default.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>
         Alias
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
Command</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #alias </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>name</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>commands</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         The syntax of the #alias command is almost like alias in csh.
         Use this command to define aliases. The variables %0, %1.. %9 contain
         the arguments to the aliased command as follows:
         the %0 variable contains all the arguments.
         the %1 variable contains the 1st argument
         ....
         the %9 variable contains the 9th argument

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #alias greet say Greetings, most honorable %1

         If you want an alias to execute more commands, you must use braces.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #alias ws </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>wake;stand</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         To delete an alias use the #unalias command.

         WARNING! TinTin++ doesn't baby sit, and hence does not check for
         recursive aliases! You can avoid recursion by escaping the entire
         line.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #alias put &bsol;put %1 in %2

         Or by using the send command.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #alias put #send put %1 in %2


</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Action

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Command</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #action </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>action-text</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>commands</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         Use this command to define an action to take place when a particular
         text appears on your screen. There are 99 variables you can use as
         wildcards in the action-text.

         These variables are %1, %2, %3 .... %9, %10, %11 ... %97, %98, %99.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #action </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>You are hungry</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>get bread bag;eat bread</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #action </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>%1 has arrived.</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'> shake %1 -- shake hands with people arriving.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #action </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>%1 tells you '%2'</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}
                   {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>tell bob %1 told me '%2'</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'> -- forward tells.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #action </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>tells you</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #bell -- beep on tell.

         You can have TinTin++ ignore actions if you type '#ignore actions on'.

         You can see what commands TinTin++ executes when an action triggers
         by typing '#debug actions on'.

         You can remove actions with the #unaction command.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>
         Command files
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         When you order TinTin++ to read a command file, it parses all the text
         in the file. You can use command files to keep aliases/actions in,
         login to a server (name, password etc..) and basically all kinds of
         commands.

         You can make the command files with either a text editor (suggested),
         or use the #write command to write out a file.

         Commands for files:

         #read filename -- read and execute the file.

         #write filename -- write all actions/aliases/substitutes/etc known for
         the current session to a file.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>:
         #session x mymud.com 1234
         myname
         mypassword
         #split
         #action {^You are hungry.} {eat bread}

         If you save the above five lines to a file named 'mymud.tin' you can
         use 'tt++ mymud.tin' to start tintin and execute the file, connecting
         you to your mud, logging in, enabling split mode, and setting an action
         to eat a bread whenever you go hungry.
</span><span style='color:#5F5'>

         Highlight

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Command</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #highlight </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>text</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>color</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         This command works a bit like #action. The purpose of this command is
         to substitute text from the server with color you provide. This command
         is a simplified version of the #substitute command.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #high </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>Snowy</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>light yellow</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #high </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>%*Snowy%*</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>light yellow</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         Use #unhigh to delete highlights.


</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Speedwalk
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         If you type a command consisting ONLY of letters and numbers n, e, s,
         w, u, d - then this command can be interpreted as a serie of movement
         commands.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: ssw2n -- go south, south, west, north, north

         If you have problems with typing some commands that actually ONLY
         consists of these letters, then type them in CAPS. For example when
         checking the NEWS or when asked to enter NEW as your name.

         You must enable speedwalking with: #config speedwalk on.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>
         Ticker

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Command</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #ticker </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>name</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>commands</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>seconds</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         The name can be whatever you want it to be, and is only required for
         the unticker command. The commands will be executed every x amount of
         seconds, which is specified in the interval part.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #tick </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>tick</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>#delay 50 #show 10 SECONDS TO TICK!;#show TICK!!!</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>60</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         This creates a ticker with the name </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>tick</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'> which will print TICK!!!,
         as well as print a warning when the next tick will occure.

         You can remove tickers with #untick

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>
         Repeating Commands
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         You can repeat a command, the syntax is: #number command

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #5 cackle -- if you just killed bob the wizard.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #10 </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>buy bread;put bread bag</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'> -- repeat these 2 commands 10 times.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #100 ooc w00t w00t!!!!! -- nochannel yourself.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>
         History
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         TinTin++ has a limited subset of the csh history features.

         ! -- repeat the last command
         !cast -- repeat the last command starting with cast
         ctrl-r -- enter the reverse history search mode.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>
         Map commands
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         TinTin++ has a powerful highly configurable automapper. Whenever
         you type n/ne/e/se/s/sw/w/nw/n/u/d tt++ tries to keep track of your
         movement.

         Commands for map:

         #map create -- create a map.
         #map goto 1 -- go to the first room in the map, created by default.
         #map map -- display the map.
         #map undo -- undo your last map alteration.
         #map write &lt;filename&gt; -- save the map to file.
         #map read &lt;filename&gt; -- load a map from file.

         There are many other map options and it's beyond the scope of this
         help section to explain everything there is to know, but I'll give
         a set of commands that will get most people started.

         #map create
         #split 12 1
         #map flag unicode on
         #map flag vt on
         #map goto 1

         These commands will create a 12 row vt100 split section at the top of
         your screen where a map drawn using unicode characters is displayed.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #action </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>There is no exit in that direction.</span><span style='color:#FFF'>} {</span><span style='color:#AAA'>#map undo</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         The map will be automatically created as you move around.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>
         Help

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Command</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #help </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>subject</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         The help command is your friend and contains the same helpfiles
         inside TinTin++ as are available on the website. If you type #help
         without an argument you will see the various available help subjects
         which try to explain the TinTin++ commands and features in greater
         detail. Entries in cyan describe commands, while entries in white
         describe various features, often in greater detail.

<a name='CHARACTERS'></a>

</span><span style='color:#FF5'>         CHARACTERS

</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         The following special characters are defined:

#        The hashtag is the default character for starting a command and is
         subsequently known as the command character or tintin character.
         When loading a command file the command character is set to the
         first character in the file. The character can also be redefined
         using #config.

;        The semi-colon is used as the command separator and can be used to
         separate two commands. Multiple commands can be strung together as
         well. Trailing semi-colons are ignored when reading a script file
         as this is a common error.

{ }      Curly brackets aka braces are used for separating multi word command
         arguments, nesting commands, and nesting variables. Braces cannot
         easily be escaped and must always be used in pairs.

&quot; &quot;      Quote characters are used for strings in the #math, #if, #switch,
         and #case commands. It is however suggested to use a set of braces
         { } to define strings instead, particularly when checking strings
         that may contain quotes.

!        The exclamation sign is used to repeat commands, see #help history.
         The character can be redefined using #config.

&bsol;        An input line starting with a backslash is sent verbatim if you are
         connected to a server. This character can be configured with
         #config, and is itself sent verbatim when the verbatim config mode
         is enabled.

         For xterm 256 colors support use &lt;aaa&gt; to &lt;fff&gt; for RGB foreground
         colors and &lt;AAA&gt; to &lt;FFF&gt; for RGB background colors. For the grayscale
         foreground colors use &lt;g00&gt; to &lt;g23&gt;, for grayscale background colors
         use &lt;G00&gt; to &lt;G23&gt;.

         The tertiary colors are as follows:

         &lt;acf&gt; - Azure            &lt;afc&gt; - Jade
         &lt;caf&gt; - Violet           &lt;cfa&gt; - Lime

         For 12 bit truecolor use &lt;F000&gt; to &lt;FFFF&gt; for foreground colors and
         &lt;B000&gt; to &lt;BFFF&gt; for background colors.

         For 24 bit truecolor use &lt;F000000&gt; to &lt;FFFFFFF&gt; for foreground
         colors and &lt;B000000&gt; to &lt;BFFFFFF&gt; for background colors.

         If the color code exceeds your configured color mode it will be

<a name='COORDINATES'></a>

</span><span style='color:#FF5'>         COORDINATES

</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         When the 0,0 coordinate is in the upper left corner TinTin++ uses
         a y,x / row,col notation, starting at 1,1. Subsequently -1,-1
         will indicate the bottom right corner. This type of argument is
         used by the #showme command.

         When the 0,0 coordinate is in the bottom left corner tintin uses
         a standard x,y notation. This type of argument is used by the
         #map jump command.

         The vast majority of tintin commands use y,x / row,col notation,
         primarily because that is the notation used by the VT100 standard
         used for terminal emulation.

         </span><span style='color:#5F5'>Squares
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         A square argument takes 2 coordinates. The first coordinate defines
         the upper left corner, the last coordinate defines the bottom
         right corner. The upper left corner of the terminal is defined as
         1,1 and the bottom right corner as -1,-1. This type of argument is
         used by #draw, #button and #map offset.

         </span><span style='color:#5F5'>Panes
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         A pane argument takes 4 size values, which are: top pane, bottom
         pane, left pane, right pane. When a negative value is provided the
         size is the maximum size, minus the value. This type of argument
         is used by the #split command.

         </span><span style='color:#5F5'>Ranges
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         A range argument takes 2 values known as the upper bound and lower
         bound. The upper bound (first value) defines the start of the
         range, the lower bound (second value) the end. The first index of
         a range is defined as 1. When a negative value is provides the last
         index is defined as -1. This type of argument is used by #buffer
         and #variable.

         &bsol;u{}  print a 8-21 bit unicode character, &bsol;u{2AF21} for example.
         &bsol;U    print a 21 bit unicode character, &bsol;U02AF21 for example.
         &bsol;v    send a vertical tab

         Ending a line with &bsol; will stop tintin from appending a line feed.
         To escape arguments in an alias or action use %%0 %%1 %%2 etc.

<a name='LISTS'></a>

</span><span style='color:#FF5'>         LISTS

</span><span style='color:#AAA'>         There are several different types of lists in tintin which behave in a
         fairly universal manner. To properly explain lists it's easiest to
         explain the most basic variable type first before discussing more
         complex types.

       - Basic variable: The standard key = value variable.

       - Simple list: A string that contains semicolon delimited fields.
         {a;b;c}. Can be saved as a variable.

       - Brace list: A string in which fields are delimited with braces.
         {a}{b}{c}. Brace lists cannot be stored as a variable because tables
         use braces as well, they must be stored as a simple list instead.

       - Table: Think of this as variables nested within another variable. Or
          as variables contained within another variable.

       - List: A table that uses integers for its indexes. Also known as an
         array. The #list command is a utility command for using tables as
         arrays.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Simple Variables
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>         #variable {simple} {Hello World!}
         #show &dollar;simple

         To see if the 'simple' variable exists you can use &amp;{simple} which
         will display 0 if the variable does not exist, or the variable's index
         if it exists.

         If you have multiple variables they are sorted alphabetically and
         numerically. While it's not all that relevant for simple variables,
         the first variable has index 1, the second variable index 2, and so
         on.

         Variable names need to start with a letter and only exist of letters,
         numbers, and underscores. If you need to use a non standard variable
         name this is possible using braces.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example: </span><span style='color:#AAA'>#variable {:)} {Happy Happy!};#show &dollar;{:)}

         Variables can be accessed using their index. While primarily useful
         for tables it is possible to do this for simple variables. Use +1 for
         the first variable, +2 for the second variable, etc. Use -1 for the
         last variable, -2 for the second last variable, etc.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #show The first variable is: *{+1} with value: &dollar;{+1}

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Removing Variables
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         To remove a variable, use #unvariable or #unvar (every command can be
         abbreviated). It's possible to remove multiple variables at once
         using #unvar {var 1} {var 2} {etc}

         Variables are unique to each session, so if you have multiple
         sessions, removing a variable from one session won't remove it from
         other sessions.

         If you remove a table variable, all variables contained within that
         table variable are removed as well.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Simple Lists
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         A simple list is a string that contains semicolon delimited fields.
         Commands can be entered as simple lists, for example:
         #show {a};#show {b} will execute a single line as two commands.

         Several commands take a simple list as their input, these are:
         #foreach, #line substitute, #path load, #list create, and #highlight.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Brace Lists
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         A brace list is a string in which fields are delimited with braces.
         Most commands take a brace list for their arguments, for example:
         #session {x} {mud.com} {1234} {mud.tin}. The session command takes
         4 arguments, the 4th argument (command file) is optional.

         Commands that take a simple list as their input will also accept a
         brace list, keep in mind you'll have to embed the brace list in an
         extra set of braces, for example: #path load {{n}{s}{w}{w}}, which is
         identical to: #path load {n;s;w;w}.

         Brace lists cannot be stored as variables because TinTin++ will
         confuse them with tables. You can convert a brace list to a table
         variable using: #list {bracelist} {create} {{a}{b}{c}} this will look
         internally as: {{1}{a}{2}{b}{3}{c}}. You can then convert this table
         back to a simple list using: #list {bracelist} {simplify} which will
         change it to {a;b;c}.

         Braces cannot easily be escaped in TinTin++. Using &bsol;{ or &bsol;} will not
         work. The reason for this is due to several factors, but primarily
         backward compatibility. To escape braces you must define them using
         hexadecimal notation using &bsol;x7B and &bsol;x7D. See #help escape for a list
         of escape options, and the help file will also remind you of how to
         escape braces.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Tables
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         Tables are key/value pairs stored within a variable. Tables are also
         known as associative arrays, dictionaries, maps, nested variables,
         structures, and probably a couple of other names. There are several
         ways to create and access tables.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #variable {friendlist} {{bob}{bob@mail.com} {bubba}{sunset@gmail.com}}

         This will create a friendlist with two entries, the key is the name of
         the friend, the value is the email address of the friend. You can see
         the email address of bob using: #show {&dollar;friendlist[bob]}. You can
         also define this table as following:

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         #variable {friendlist[bob]} {bob@mail.com}
         #variable {friendlist[bubba]} {sunset@gmail.com}

         This would create the exact same table as the single line declaration
         used previously. To see the first key in the table use:
         *friendlist[+1], to see the first value in the table use:
         &dollar;friendlist[+1]. To see the size of the table use &amp;friendlist[]. To
         print a bracelist of all friends use *friendlist[], to print a
         bracelist of all friends whose name starts with the letter 'a' you
         would use: *friendlist[a%*]. Similarly to see the number of friends
         you have whose name ends with the letter 'b' you would use:
         &amp;friendlist[%*b].

         See #help regexp for a brief overview of regular expression options.
         While TinTin++ supports PCRE (perl-compatible regular expressions), it
         embeds them within its own regular expression syntax that is simpler
         and less invasive, while still allowing the full power of PCRE for
         those who need it.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #unvariable {friendlist[bubba]}

         This would remove {bubba} from the friendlist. To remove the entire
         friendlist you would use: #unvariable {friendlist}.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #variable {friendlist} {{bob} {{email}{bob@ma.il} {phone}{123456789}}}

         There is no limit to the number of nests, simply add more braces. To
         see Bob's email in this example you would use:
         #show {&dollar;friendlist[bob][email]}.

         To merge two tables the #cat command can be used.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>         #variable {bli} {{a}{1}{b}{2}}
         #variable {blo} {{c}{3}{d}{4}}
         #cat {blo} {&dollar;bli}

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Lists

</span><span style='color:#AAA'>         Tables are sorted alphabetically with the exception of numbers which
         are sorted numerically. If you want to determine the sorting order
         yourself you can use use the #list command which helps you to use
         tables as arrays.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #action {%1 chats %2} {#list chats add {%0}}

         Each time a chat is received it's added to the end of the 'chats' list
         variable. If you type #variable chats this might look like:

         </span><span style='color:#FF5'>#</span><span style='color:#5FF'>VARIABLE </span><span style='color:#A0A'>{</span><span style='color:#FFF'>chats</span><span style='color:#A0A'>}
         {
                 {</span><span style='color:#FFF'>1</span><span style='color:#A0A'>} {</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Bubba chats Hi</span><span style='color:#A0A'>}
                 {</span><span style='color:#FFF'>2</span><span style='color:#A0A'>} {</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Bob chats Hi bub</span><span style='color:#A0A'>}
                 {</span><span style='color:#FFF'>3</span><span style='color:#A0A'>} {</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Bubba chats Bye</span><span style='color:#A0A'>}
                 {</span><span style='color:#FFF'>4</span><span style='color:#A0A'>} {</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Bob chats bub bye</span><span style='color:#A0A'>}
         }

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Parsing
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         There are various ways to parse lists and tables, using either #loop,
         #foreach, #while, or #&lt;number&gt;.

         #loop takes two numeric arguments, incrementing or decrementing the
         first number until it matches the second number. The value of the loop
         counter is stored in the provided variable.

         #foreach takes either a simple list or a brace list as its first
         argument. Foreach will go through each item in the list and store the
         value in the provided variable.

         #while will perform an if check on the first argument, if the result
         is true it will execute the commands in the second argument. Then it
         performs an if check on the first argument again. It will continue to
         repeat until the if check returns 0 or the loop is interrupted with a
         control flow command. It takes special care to avoid infinite loops.

         #&lt;number&gt; will execute the provided argument 'number' times. For
         example: #4 {#show beep! &bsol;a}

         Here are some examples.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #list friends create {bob;bubba;zorro}

         Internally this looks like {{1}{bob}{2}{bubba}{3}{zorro}} and the
         list can be parsed in various ways.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #foreach {&dollar;friends[%*]} {name} {#show &dollar;name}

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #foreach {*friends[%*]} {i} {#show &dollar;friends[&dollar;i]}

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #loop {1} {&amp;friends[]} {i} {#show &dollar;friends[+&dollar;i]}

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #math i 1;#while {&amp;friends[+&dollar;i]} {#show &dollar;friends[+&dollar;i];
         #math i &dollar;i + 1}

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'> #math i 1;#&amp;friends[] {#show &dollar;friends[+&dollar;i];#math i &dollar;i + 1}

         Each of the five examples above performs the same task; printing the
         three names in the friends list.

         If you want to get a better look at what goes on behind the scenes
         while executing scripts you can use '#debug all on'. To stop seeing
         debug information use '#debug all off'.

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         List Tables

</span><span style='color:#AAA'>         List tables are also known as databases and the #list command has
         several options to manipulate them.

         For these options to work properly all tables need to have identical
         keys. Here is an example list table.

         #var {friendlist}
         {
             {1}{{name}{bob} {age}{54}}
             {2}{{name}{bubba} {age}{21}}
             {3}{{name}{pamela} {age}{36}}
         }

         To sort the list table by age you would use:

         #list friendlist indexate age
         #list friendlist order

         To remove everyone whose name starts with a 'b' you would use:

         #list friendlist indexate name
         #list friendlist filter {} {b%*}

         The filter option only supports regular expressions. To filter
         using mathematics you would loop through the list backwards:

         #loop &amp;friendlist[] 1 index
         {
             #if {&dollar;friendlist[+&dollar;index][age] &lt; 30}
             {
                 #list friendlist delete &dollar;index
             }
         }

         Alternatively you can use the refine option.

         #list friendlist indexate age
         #list friendlist refine {&amp;0 &gt;= 30}

         To add an item to a list table there are two options:

         #list friendlist add {{{name}{hobo} {age}{42}}}
         #list friendlist insert -1 {{name}{hobo} {age}{42}}

</span><span style='color:#5F5'>         Optimization
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         TinTin++ tables are exceptionally fast while they remain under 100
         items. Once a table grows beyond 10000 items there can be performance
         issues when inserting and removing items in the beginning or middle of
         the table.

         The plan is to eventually implement an indexable and flexible data
         structure for large tables.

         If you load a large table from file it's important to make sure it's
         sorted, when using #write to save a table it's automatically sorted.

         If you notice performance issues on large tables it's relatively easy
         to create a hash table.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         #alias {sethash}
         {
             #format hash %H %1;
             #math hash1 &dollar;hash % 100;
             #math hash2 &dollar;hash / 100 % 100;
             #var hashtable[&dollar;hash1][&dollar;hash2][%1] %2
         }

         #function {gethash}
         {
             #format hash %H %1;
             #math hash1 &dollar;hash % 100;
             #math hash2 &dollar;hash / 100 % 100;
             #return &dollar;hashtable[&dollar;hash1][&dollar;hash2][%1]
         }

         #alias {test}
         {
             sethash bli hey;
             sethash bla hi;
             sethash blo hello;
             #show The value of bla is: @gethash{bla}
         }

         The above script will rapidly store and retrieve over 1 million items.
         Looping through a hash table is relatively easy as well.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example:</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         #alias {showhash}
         {
             #foreach {*hashtable[%*]} {hash1}
             {
                 #foreach {*hashtable[&dollar;hash1][%*]} {hash2}
                 {
                     #echo {%-20s = %s}
                                        {hashtable[&dollar;hash1][&dollar;hash2]}
                                        {&dollar;hashtable[&dollar;hash1][&dollar;hash2]}
                 }
             }
        }

</span><span style='color:#FF5'>         MAPPING

</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         TinTin++ has a powerful automapper that uses a room system similar to
         Diku MUDs which means that odd map layouts and weird exit
         configurations aren't a problem. The mapper provides tools to improve
         the visual map display. For basic path tracking see #help PATH.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>         #map create [size]
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         This command creates the initial map. The size is 50,000 by default
         and can be changed at any time with the #map resize command. If you
         play a MUD that uses MSDP or GMCP to provide room numbers you'll have
         to increase it to the highest reported room number. Increasing the
         size of the map doesn't decrease performance.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>         #map goto &lt;location&gt;
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         When you create the map you are not automatically inside the map. By
         default room number (vnum) 1 is created, so you can go to it using
         #map goto 1. Once you are inside the map new rooms are automatically
         created as you move around. Movement commands are defined with the
         pathdir command. By default n, ne, e, se, s, sw, w, nw, u, d are
         defined.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         #map map &lt;rows&gt; &lt;cols&gt; &lt;append|overwrite|list|variable&gt; &lt;name&gt;
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         To see the map you can use #map map. It's annoying to have to
         constantly type #map map however. Instead it's possible to use #split
         to display a vt100 map. To do so execute:

         </span><span style='color:#FFF'>#split 16 1
         #map flag vtmap on</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         The first command sets the top split lines to 16 and the bottom split
         line to 1. If you want a smaller or larger map display you can use a
         different value than 16.

         If you don't need to display diagonal exits and prefer a more compact
         look you can use #map flag AsciiGraphics off. This will enable the
         standard display which uses UTF-8 box drawing characters, results may
         vary depending on the font used.

         If your terminal supports UTF-8 you can also give #map flag unicode on
         a try.

         If you want to display the map in a different location of the screen
         use something like:

         </span><span style='color:#FFF'>#split 0 1 0 -80
         #map offset 1 81 -4 -1</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         This will display the map on the right side of the screen, if the
         width of the screen is wide enough.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         #map undo
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         If you accidentally walk into the wall on your MUD the mapper will
         still create a new room. You can easily fix this mistake by using
         #map undo. If you want to move around on the map without moving around
         on the MUD you can use: #map move {direction}. To delete a room
         manually you can use: #map delete {direction}. To create a room
         manually you can use: #map dig {direction}.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         #map write &lt;filename&gt;
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         You can save your map using #map write, to load a map you can use
         #map read &lt;filename&gt;.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         #map set &lt;option&gt; &lt;value&gt;
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         You can set the room name using #map set roomname &lt;name&gt;. You either
         have to do this manually or create triggers to set the room name
         automatically. Once the room name is set you can use #map goto with
         the room name to visit it. If there are two rooms with the same name
         #map goto will go to the most nearby room. If you want to always go
         to the same room you should memorize the room number or create a
         landmark.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         #map landmark firstroom 1
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         You can further narrow down the matches by providing additional
         arguments, for example:
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         #map goto {dark alley} {roomexits} {n;e} {roomarea} {Haddock Ville}
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         You can set the room weight using #map set roomweight {value}. The
         weight by default is set to 1.0 and it represents the difficulty of
         traversing the room. If you have a lake as an alternative route, and
         traversing water rooms is 4 times slower than regular rooms, then you
         could set the weight of the lake rooms to 4.0. If the lake is 3 rooms
         wide the total weight is 12. If walking around the lake has a weight
         less than 12 the mapper will go around the lake, if the weight is
         greater than 12 the mapper will take a route through the lake.

         You can set the room symbol using #map set roomsymbol {value}. The
         symbol should be one, two, or three characters, which can be
         colorized. You can for example mark shops with an 'S' and colorize the
         'S' depending on what type of shop it is.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         #map run &lt;location&gt; &lt;delay&gt;
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         The run command will have tintin find the shortest path to the given
         location and execute the movement commands to get there. You can
         provide a delay in seconds with floating point precision, for example:
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         #map run {dark alley} {0.5}
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         This will make you walk towards the nearest dark alley with 0.5 second
         intervals. Typical MUDs accept commands at 0.25 second intervals.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         #map insert {direction} {flag}
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         The insert command is useful for adding spacer rooms called void rooms.
         Often rooms overlap, and by adding void rooms you can stretch out
         exits. For example: #map insert north void. You cannot enter void rooms
         once they've been created, so you'll have to use #map info in an
         adjacent room to find the room vnum, then use #map goto {vnum} to
         visit.

         It's also possible to align rooms using void rooms. This is easily
         done using #map insert north void.

Strings must be encased in double quotes or braces. The &gt; &gt;= &lt; &lt;= operators
perform basic string comparisons. The == != operators perform regular
expressions, with the argument on the left being the string, and the argument
on the right being the regex. For example {bla} == {%*a} would evaluate as 1.

         To enable xterm mouse tracking use #CONFIG MOUSE ON.

         To see mouse events as they happen use #CONFIG MOUSE INFO. This
         information can then be used to create mouse events with the #event
         command and buttons with the #button command.

         Visual buttons and pop-ups can be drawn on the screen with the #draw
         command.

         The input field can be changed and renamed using #screen inputregion,
         which allows creating named events for enter handling.

</span><span style='color:#FF5'>         MSLP

</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         MSLP (Mud Server Link Protocol) requires enabling #config mouse on,
         and creating the appropriate LINK events.

         The simplest link can be created by surrounding a keyword with the
         &bsol;e[4m and &bsol;e[24m tags.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #substitute {&bsol;b{n|e|s|w|u|d}&bsol;b} {&bsol;e[4m%1&bsol;e[24m}

         This would display 'Exits: n, e, w.' as 'Exits: n, e, w.'.

         When clicked this would trigger the PRESSED LINK MOUSE BUTTON ONE
         event of which %4 will hold the link command and %6 holds the
         link name, which in the case of a simple link will be empty.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #event {PRESSED LINK MOUSE BUTTON ONE} {#send {%4}}

         Keep in mind that if you change PRESSED to DOUBLE-CLICKED the link
         will only work if the text does not scroll in between clicks.

         If you want to create a complex link use an OSC code.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #sub {&bsol;bsmurf&bsol;b} {&bsol;e]68;1;;say I hate smurfs!&bsol;a&bsol;e[4m%0&bsol;e[24m}

         If you have the LINK event of the previous example set, the %4
         argument will contain 'say I hate smurfs!'.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #sub {&bsol;bgoblin&bsol;b} {&bsol;e]68;1;SEND;kill goblin&bsol;a&bsol;e[4m%0&bsol;e[24m}

         Notice the previous instance of ;; has been replaced with ;SEND;
         which will name the link. This will generate a named event.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #event {PRESSED LINK SEND MOUSE BUTTON ONE} {#send {%4}}

         By naming links you can organize things a little bit better instead
         of tunneling everything through the same event.

         Keep in mind that the server is allowed to use &bsol;e]68;1;&bsol;a as well,
         subsequently various security measures are in place.

         To create secure links, which are filtered out when send by a server,
         you need to use &bsol;e]68;2;&bsol;a, and they instead trigger the SECURE LINK
         event.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #sub {%* tells %*} {&bsol;e]68;2;EXEC;#cursor set tell %1 &bsol;a&bsol;e[4m%0&bsol;e[24m}
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>       </span><span style='color:#AAA'>  #event {PRESSED SECURE LINK EXEC MOUSE BUTTON ONE} {%4}

         This would make you start a reply when clicking on a tell.

<a name='PCRE'></a>

</span><span style='color:#FF5'>         PCRE

</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         A regular expression, regex or regexp is a sequence of characters that
         defines a search pattern. Since the 1980s, different syntaxes for
         writing regular expressions exist, the two most widely used ones being
         the POSIX syntax and the similar but more advanced Perl standard.
         TinTin++ supports the Perl standard known as PCRE (Perl Compatible
         Regular Expressions).

         Regular expressions are an integral part of TinTin++, but keep in mind
         that tintin doesn't allow you to use regular expressions directly,
         instead it uses a simpler intermediate syntax that still allows more
         complex expressions when needed.

         Commands that utilize regular expressions are: action, alias, elseif,
         gag, grep, highlight, if, kill, local, math, prompt, regexp, replace,
         substitute, switch, variable and while. Several other commands use
         regular expressions in minor ways. Fortunately the basics are very
         easy to learn.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>         TinTin++ Regular Expression</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         The following support is available for regular expressions.

       ^ match start of line.
       &dollar; match of end of line.
       &bsol; escape one character.

  %1-%99 match of any text, stored in the corresponding index.
      %0 should be avoided in the regex, contains all matched text.
     { } embed a perl compatible regular expression, matches are stored.
   %!{ } embed a perl compatible regular expression, matches are not stored.

[ ] . + | ( ) ? * are treated as normal text unless used within braces. Keep in
mind that { } is replaced with ( ) automatically unless %!{ } is used.

      %+ Match one to any number of characters            (.+?)
      %* Match zero to any number of characters           (.*?)
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         Variables</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         If you use %1 in an action to perform a match the matched string is
         stored in the %1 variable which can be used in the action body.

Example: #act {%1 says 'Tickle me'} {tickle %1}

         If you use %2 the match is stored in %2, etc. If you use an unnumbered
         match like %* or %S the match is stored at the last used index
         incremented by one.

Example: #act {%3 says '%*'} {#if {&quot;%4&quot; == &quot;Tickle me&quot;} {tickle %3}}

         The maximum variable index is 99. If you begin an action with %* the
         match is stored in %1. You should never use %0 in the trigger part of
         an action, when used in the body of an action %0 contains all the parts
         of the string that were matched.

         To prevent a match from being stored use %!*, %!w, etc.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         Perl Compatible Regular Expressions</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         You can embed a PCRE (Perl Compatible Regular Expression) using curley
         braces { }, these braces are replaced with parentheses ( ) unless you
         use %!{ }.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         Or</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         You can separate alternatives within a PCRE using the | character.

Example: #act {%* raises {his|her|its} eyebrows.} {say 42..}
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         Brackets</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         You can group alternatives and ranges within a PCRE using brackets.

Example: #act {%* says 'Who is number {[1-9]}?} {say &dollar;number[%2] is number %2}

         The example only triggers if someone provides a number between 1 and
         9. Any other character will cause the action to not trigger.

Example: #act {%* says 'Set password to {[^0-9]*}&dollar;} {say The password must
           contain at least one number, not for security reasons, but just to
           annoy you.} {4}

         When the ^ character is used within brackets it creates an inverse
         search, [^0-9] matches every character except for a number between 0
         and 9.
</span><span style='color:#FFF'>
         Quantification</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         A quantifier placed after a match specifies how often the match is
         allowed to occur.

       ? repeat zero or one time.
       * repeat zero or multiple times.
       + repeat once or multiple times.
     {n} repeat exactly n times, n must be a number.
    {n,} repeat at least n times, n must be a number.
   {n,o} repeat between n and o times, n and o must be a number.

Example: #act {%* says 'Who is number {[1-9][0-9]{0,2}}?} {Say &dollar;number[%2] is
           number %2}

         The example only triggers if someone provides a number between 1 and
         999.

         </span><span style='color:#FFF'>Parantheses</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         TinTin Regular Expressions automatically add parenthesis, for example
         %* translates to (.*?) in PCRE unless the %* is found at the start or
         end of the line, in which cases it translates to (.*). Paranthesis in
         PCRE causes a change in execution priority similar to mathematical
         expressions, but parentheses also causes the match to be stored to a
         variable.

         When nesting multiple sets of parentheses each nest is assigned its
         numerical variable in order of appearance.

Example: #act {%* chats '{Mu(ha)+}'} {chat %2ha!}

         If someone chats Muha you will chat Muhaha! If someone chats Muhaha
         you will chat Muhahaha!

         </span><span style='color:#FFF'>Lazy vs Greedy</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         By default regex matches are greedy, meaning {.*} will capture as much
         text as possible.

Example: #regex {bli bla blo} {^{.*} {.*}&dollar;} {#show Arg1=(&amp;1) Arg2=(&amp;2)}

         This will display: Arg1=(bli bla) Arg2=(blo)

         By appending a ? behind a regex it becomes lazy, meaning {.*?} will
         capture as little text as possible.

Example: #regex {bli bla blo} {^{.*?} {.*?}&dollar;} {#show Arg1=(&amp;1) Arg2=(&amp;2)}

         This will display: Arg1=(bli) Arg2=(bla blo).

      &bsol;Z Match end of string                            &dollar;

         &bsol;s matches one space, &bsol;s+ matches one or multiple spaces.

         </span><span style='color:#FFF'>Color triggers</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         To make matching easier text triggers (Actions, Gags, Highlights,
         Prompts, and Substitutes) have their color codes stripped. If you
         want to create a color trigger you must start the triggers with a ~
         (tilde). To make escape codes visible use #config {convert meta} on.

Example: #action {~&bsol;e[1;37m%1} {#var roomname %1}

         If the room name is the only line on the server in bright white
         white color trigger will save the roomname.


         This covers the basics. PCRE has more options, most of which are
         somewhat obscure, so you'll have to read a PCRE manual for additional
         information.

<a name='SESSIONNAME'></a>

</span><span style='color:#FF5'>         SESSIONNAME

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Syntax</span><span style='color:#AAA'>:  #[sessionname] </span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>commands</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         You can create multiple sessions with the #session command. By default
         only one session is active, meaning commands you input are executed in
         the active session. While all sessions receive output, only output sent
         to the active session is displayed.

         When you create a session with the #session command you must specify a
         session name, the session name, prepended with a hashtag, can be used
         to activate the session when used without an argument. If an argument
         is given it will be executed by that session as a command, the session
         will not be activated.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Example</span><span style='color:#AAA'>: #ses one tintin.net 23;#ses two tintin.net 23;#one;#two grin

         This will create two sessions, the session that was created last (two
         in this case) will be automatically activated upon creation. Using
         #one, session one is activated. Using #two grin, the grin social will
         be executed by session two, session one will remain the active session.

         If you send a variable to another session it will be substituted before
         being passed. If you want the variable value of the receiving session
         to be used you need to use '&dollar;&dollar;{variable}' to properly escape it.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>Syntax</span><span style='color:#AAA'>:  @[sessionname]</span><span style='color:#FFF'>{</span><span style='color:#AAA'>substitution</span><span style='color:#FFF'>}</span><span style='color:#AAA'>

         If you want to pull the value of a variable from another session you
         can do so in a similar way as you would use a #function call. Using
         #showme {@two{&dollar;test}} in session one would print the value of &dollar;test,
         as defined by session two.

         Speedwalking allows you to enter multiple directions without using
         semicolons. Directions should be prefixed with a number and will be
         executed the given number of times.

         You can enable speedwalking with #CONFIG {SPEEDWALK} {ON}.

         </span><span style='color:#5F5'>SPEEDWALK V2
</span><span style='color:#AAA'>
         Modern MUDs have increasingly adopted the use of diagonal exits, like
         ne, nw, sw, and se. To make accomodations for this the #map and #path
         command no longer interpret nesw as a speedwalk and require this to
         be written as 1n1e1s1w, which then allows 2ne2e to execute ne;ne;e;e.

         Speedwalks entered on the input line continue to use the v1 system.

         The #path load command is backward compatible with v1 speedwalks and
         to load v2 speedwalks the #path unzip command needs to be used, unless
         the speedwalk was saved using #path save in which case a v2 compatible
         format is used that can also contain timing data.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>*</span><span style='color:#AAA'>         The astrix sign is used to retrieve the name of a variable.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>@</span><span style='color:#AAA'>         The at sign is used for functions.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>[ ]</span><span style='color:#AAA'>       Brackets are used for nested variables which function as an
          associative array. Associative arrays are also known as tables and
          maps. Regex can be used within brackets to match multiple variables.

</span><span style='color:#FFF'>+ -</span><span style='color:#AAA'>       The plus and minus signs are used to access variables by their index,
          with the first variable having index +1, and the last variable
          having index -1. Variables are ordered alphanumerically.

          All variables and functions can be escaped by doubling the sign,
          like &dollar;&dollar;variable_name or @@function_name. To escape a variable
          twice use &dollar;&dollar;&dollar;var_name. One escape is removed each time tintin
          needs to substitute a variable or function.
