Multi-line Edit

General-purpose dialog for editing text (like trigger/alias match/send text).

This is used for multi-line input.

Functions ...

If the dialog is being used for editing a script a "Functions..." box will be present. Clicking this will show a help dialog box listing all MUSHclient script functions.

If a word is selected, or the cursor is on a word in the multi-line edit dialog, then that word will be used as the filter for the help dialog. For example, position the cursor inside "AddTrigger" and click the "Functions" button.

Complete ...

If the dialog is being used for editing a script a "Complete..." box will be present. Clicking this will invoke a list box with all function names that start with the selected word (or the word adjacent to the cursor). You can choose one from the list and press (Enter) to accept the function name, or (Esc) to leave the text unchanged.

Go To Line ...

If the dialog is being used for editing a script a "Go To Line ..." box will be present. This lets you jump to a line in the dialog by line number. This is handy when an error message says "error in line 42" (or similar).
