Yes! That's a great idea..
Have it be so you set it for your promt under an option somewhere..

You enter:
<H1 "/" H2 M1 "/" M2 V1 "/" V2>
It accepts:
<100/1000hp 200/2000m 100/500mv>

It should strip all non-numerical values that arent in the little < and > things or quotes.. So it'd actually recognizes it as:
<100/1000 200/2000 100/500>

Maybe H3 M3 and V3 for percentages?
(And have them interchangable)

<M3 H3 V3>

Then perhaps something like X to say "dont use this number":

<H3 M3 V3 "(" X "gold)" X "tnl" "(" X "am)">

And since you use H1 and stuff (or whatever else you can get it to recognize easily) it would take 100H1/H2 and put that as a percent and have an accordingly long bar across the bottom or top of the window..

Possibly and option to match the color of the bar to the color of H1 or H3..

Spaces between numbers automatically end the H1 or whatever value..

Summary:

Spaced= End value
Quoted= Ignore
X= Ignore value
100H1/H2= % for bar
H3= % for bar
Bar= Along top/bottom? (set-able? drag-able?)
BarColor= Matchable in to H1 or H3 (selection circle things? text box?)


There, I got it all planned out for you Nick.. ;)

You can do that in a plugin using the info bar - I thought I did an example a while back. The actual trigger text would vary from MUD to MUD, as would what you want to see displayed, but the idea is simple enough.
