How does one get the &1 stuff to work in CMud aliases?

#alias {cbh} {cast 'burning hands' %1}

:edit: And multiple counts of %*'s are possible. Like #tr {(%w) beats (%w) over the head.} {applaud %1;fart %2} would respond to the mud output "Jvj beats Snuffles over the head." and consequently applaud me and fart on Snuffles.

Additionally you can also use multiple variables in the form of:

Code:

#alias mm {cast 'magic missile' %*}

to be used as: "mm bob" to cast them at bob or "mm w bob" to cast them to the room west of you at bob. Of course you can also leave no variable to cast it on your current melee target.

Quick followup...how do I add color...the normal codes don't seem to work.

While I use zMud I think cMud has many of the same features. $ is probably a special character in scripts and you need to use the "~" (tilde) character to send a literal $ to the mud.

So it would

Code:

~$7This text is in light grey ~$Aand this text is in default.  And this is a Tilde ~~

Or is it that you want colors on local echoes rather than data you're sending to the MUD?
