I know that it's possible to adapt MOO to use %r and %t. Does anyone know how to do this? I've seen it before, but it's a little too advanced for me at the moment.

If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not entirely sure what you're wanting to be doing with them. However, if you look at $string_utils:pronoun_sub, I think you might see what you're looking for. If used on a string in a particular verb, %r is replaced with the reflexive pronoun for the player object (himself, herself) of that particular verb and %t defaults to the caller of the verb (#-1 if it's self-evalled), but can be set explicitly in the $string_utils:pronoun_sub arguments.

Also, you can do substitutions for the other pronoun forms (he/him/his) and the names of direct/indirect objects for the verb, etc. I highly suggest you check it out.

Sorry I wasn't more elaborate. I don't know what I was thinking. Anyway, I meant the %r for Return and the %t for Tab that MUSH uses. :). I've seen MOOS adapted to use this but I'm not entirely sure how they did it.

For future reference, this kind of topic doesn't qualify as "advanced" Coding or MUD design. Please use the regular coder's forum.
