| Hi there. I recently started using MUSH Client and I'm trying to recreate some functionality my older MU* client used to have. Namely the ability to automatically double space log files.
I thought perhaps it might be as simple as creating a trigger on '\n' that outputs '\n' to the log file. But that didn't seem to work.
Could anyone help me determine how I could replicate this feature using MUSH Client?
Thanks. | | Top |

Make sure "Triggers can match on an empty line" is active, in File -> Global Preferences -> General. |

| | Hi! Thank you for the response. Could I also ask that you point me to the help file or documentation that tells me how to install that particular trigger? I'm only familiar with the dialog entry format. | | Top |

| | Sure, sorry. Copy the entire contents of the code box there, and go to Game -> Configure -> Triggers. Click the Paste button on the bottom of the dialog, and it should import the trigger for you. |

| | A simpler method is to go into the Logging configuration for the world, and near the bottom, where it says Output lines ... Postamble put "%n" into the box (without the quotes). That will put a newline as a postamble after each line. You will also need to put that into the box for "commands" and "script notes" as well, if you want them double spaced too. |

| Thank you Nick Gammon. That worked perfectly.
Twisol: I tried the trigger and it didn't appear to work. Interestingly enough after I closed and re-opened the application, the trigger had changed. I tried deleting and re-pasting but that didn't work either. | | Top |
