Just out of curiousity, you DID have "regular expression" checked, right?

Get my plugins here: http://www.magnumsworld.com/muds/

Constantly proving I don't know what I am doing...

It worked for me.


Trigger: ^$
Regular expression: checked
Send: -->Blank line detected<--
Send to: Output


Here is a test ...


look
A Stone Corridor
This is the stage of your training where you may begin to feel pangs of hunger and a parched throat. In other words, you need food and drink. To the east is the Darkhaven Supply Store. You may purchase water and some meat. Once you have eaten and drunk, you will be ready to proceed north.
Exits: north east.
-->Blank line detected<--
<3000hp 5000m 3100mv>


The blank line after the exits triggered the trigger, which displayed the message on the screen.

By checking "omit from output" the line is omitted.

Maybe the MUD is sending spaces, you could make the trigger:


Match on: ^[ ]*$
Regular expression: checked


The "[ ]*" says "match on zero or more spaces".
