             ACTION

    Command: #action {message} {commands} {priority}

             The #action command can be used to respond with one or several
             commands to a specific message sent by the server. The %1-%99
             variables are substituted from the message and can be used in the
             command part of the action.

             If the message starts with a ~ color codes must be matched. You can
             enable #config {convert meta} on to display meta characters.

             For more information on pattern matching see the section on PCRE.

    Example: #action {%1 tells you '%2'} {tell %1 I'm afk.}

             Actions can be triggered by the #show command. If you don't want a
             #show to get triggered use: #line ignore #show {text}

             Actions are ordered alphabetically and only one action can trigger at
             a time. To change the order you can assign a priority, which defaults
             to 5, with a lower number indicating a higher priority. The priority
             can be a floating point number and should be between 1 and 9.

             To remove an action with %* as the message, use #unaction {%%*} or
             #unaction {\%*}. Alternatively you could wrap the action inside a
             class, and kill that class when you no longer need the action.

    Comment: You can remove an action with the #unaction command.

             ALIAS

    Command: #alias {name} {commands} {priority}

             The #alias command can be used to shorten up long or oftenly used
             commands. The %1-99 variables are substituted from the arguments when
             using an alias and represent the 1st till 99th word which can be used
             in the commands part of the alias. If %0 is used it will contain all
             arguments. The priority part is optional and determines the priority
             of the alias, it defaults to 5.

    Example: #alias {k} {kill %1;kick}

             Typing 'k orc' would result in attacking the orc followed by a kick.

             You can create multi-word aliases by using variables in the name
             section.

    Example: #alias {k %1 with %2} {draw %2;attack %1;slash %1 with %2;
               kick at %2;strike %1 with %2}

             Using the above alias you could type k blue smurf with battle axe

             To have an alias that matches all user input, use %* as the name.

    Example: #alias {%*} {#show You wrote: %0}

             Aliases are ordered alphabetically and only one alias can trigger at
             a time. To change the order you can assign a priority, which defaults
             to 5, with a lower number indicating a higher priority. The priority
             can be a floating point number.

             To remove an alias with %* as the name, use #unalias {%%*} or #unalias
             {\%*}. Alternatively you can wrap the alias inside a class, and kill
             that class when you no longer need the alias.

             For more information on pattern matching see the section on PCRE.

    Comment: You can remove an alias with the #unalias command.

             ALL

    Command: #all {string}

             If you have multiple sessions in one terminal you can use #all to
             execute the command with all sessions, excluding the startup session.

    Example: #all quit

             Sends 'quit' to all sessions.

             BELL

    Command: #bell {flash|focus|margin|ring|volume} {argument}

             The #bell command without an argument will ring the terminal bell.

    Example: #action {Bubba tells you} {#bell}

             If you aren't watching the screen this could be useful if you don't
             want to miss out on a conversation with Bubba. Alternatively you can
             use #system to play a sound file.

             Some terminals will allow you to use VT100 Operating System Commands
             to change the terminal's bell behavior which can be used to flash the
             taskbar icon and or focus the window on receival of a bell.

    Example: #action {Bubba tells you} {#screen save title;#screen set title Tell!;
               #bell ring;#delay 10 #screen load title}

             The above example will save your window title, change the title to
             'Tell!', ring the bell, next reset the window title after 10 seconds.

             It's possible to set the terminal to pop to the foreground upon
             ringing of the alarm bell.

    Example: #bell focus on;#bell ring;#bell focus off

             It's possible to adjust the alarm bell volume on some terminals.

    Example: #loop {1} {8} {cnt} {#line substitute variables
               #delay {$cnt} {#show Volume $cnt: #bell volume $cnt;#bell}

             BREAK

    Command: #break

             The break command can be used inside the #else, #elseif, #if, #foreach,
             #loop, #parse, #switch, and #while statements. When #break is found,
             tintin will stop executing the statement it is currently in and move on
             to the next.

    Example: #while {1} {#math cnt $cnt + 1;#if {$cnt == 20} {#break}}

             BUFFER

    Command: #buffer {option} {argument}

             The buffer command has various options to manipulate your scrollback
             buffer.

             The size of the scrollback buffer can be configured using #config
             buffer_size <size>. The size must be either 100, 1000, 10000, 100000
             or 1000000 lines.

             While scrolling through the scrollback buffer incoming text is not
             displayed, this can be disabled using #config scroll_lock off. The
             scroll lock is automatically disabled when manual input is received,
             subsequently #buffer up and down only work properly when used in a
             macro or mouse event.

             #buffer {clear} {[lower bound]} {[upper bound]}

             Without an argument this will clear the entire scrollback buffer.
             Otherwise it will clear the given range.

             Positive numbers are measured from the start of the scrollback buffer,
             negative numbers from the end.

             #buffer {down} [lines]

             Moves your scrollback buffer down one page and displays the page. If
             a line number is provided it will scroll down the given number of
             lines.

             #buffer {end}

             Moves you to the end of your scrollback buffer and displays the page.
             Disables scroll lock mode. Most useful when used in a #macro.

             #buffer {find} {[number]} {<string>} {[variable]}

             Moves the buffer to the given string which can contain a regular
             expression. Optionally you can provide the number of matches to skip,
             allowing you to jump further back in the buffer.

             A positive number searches from the start of the buffer, a negative
             number from the end. If you provide a variable the location will be
             stored and no jump takes place.

             #buffer {get} {<variable>} {<lower bound>} {[upper bound]}

             Allows you to store one or several lines from your scrollback buffer
             (including color codes) into a variable. The lower and upper bound
             must be between 1 and the size of the buffer. If the upper bound is
             omitted the given line is stored as a standard variable. If an upper
             bound is given the lines between the two bounds are stored as a list.

             Positive numbers are measured from the start of the scrollback buffer,
             negative numbers from the end.

             #buffer {home}

             Moves you to the top of your scrollback buffer and displays the page.
             Enables scroll lock mode. Most useful when used in a #macro.

             #buffer {info} {[save]} {[variable]}

             Display buffer info, optionally save the data to a variable.

             #buffer {jump} {<location>}

             Moves the buffer to the given location. A positive number jumps from
             the start of the buffer, a negative number from the end.

             #buffer {lock} {on|off}

             Toggles the lock on the scrollback buffer. When locked, newly incoming
             text won't be displayed, any command will disable the lock, though
             several buffer commands will re-enable the lock. When unlocking it'll
             move you to the end of your scrollback buffer and display the page.

             #buffer {refresh}

             Marks the buffer as needing to be refreshed, only useful while in
             vertical split mode.

             #buffer {up} [lines]

             Moves your scrollback buffer up one page and displays the page.
             Enables scroll lock mode. Most useful when used in a #macro. You
             can use #buffer {up} {1} to move the scrollback buffer up 1 line.

             #buffer {write} {<filename>}

             Writes the scrollback buffer to the given file.

    Example: #macro {\e[F} {#buffer end}

             BUTTON

    Command: #button {square} {commands} {priority}

             The #button command can be used to respond with one or several
             commands to a mouse click received within the specified square.
             The click coordinates are stored in %0-%3 and can be used in the
             command part of the button.

             The square part should exists of two coordinates defining the
             upper left and bottom right corner using row, col, row, col syntax.
             The square arguments should be separated by spaces, semi-colons or
             braces.

             By default the button is set to respond to a mouse button press, to
             respond to other button presses you must add a 5th argument to the
             square that defines the button press type. You can enable #info
             button on to see button events and their type as they happen.

             The priority part is optional and determines the priority of the
             button, it defaults to 5.

             You must enable #config {mouse tracking} on for buttons to work.

             This command draws no visible button, you'll have to do so separately
             if needed.

    Example: #button {1;1;2;2} {#show You clicked the upper left corner.}

             Buttons are ordered alphabetically and only one button can trigger at
             a time. To change the order you can assign a priority, which defaults
             to 5, with a lower number indicating a higher priority. The priority
             can be a floating point number.

    Comment: To see button clicks trigger use #info button on.

    Comment: You can remove a button with the #unbutton command.

             CASE

    Command: #case {conditional} {arguments}

             The case command must be used within the #switch command. When the
             conditional argument of the case command matches the conditional
             argument of the switch command the body of the case is executed.

             When comparing strings both the switch and case arguments must be
             surrounded in quotes.

    Example:

             #function {reverse_direction}
             {
                 #switch {"%1"}
                 {
                     #case {"north"} {#return south};
                     #case {"east"}  {#return west};
                     #case {"south"} {#return north};
                     #case {"west"}  {#return east};
                     #case {"up"}    {#return down};
                     #case {"down"}  {#return up}
                 }
             }

             This function returns the reverse direction. @reverse_direction{north}
             would return south.

             CAT

    Command: #cat {variable} {argument}

             The cat command will concatenate the argument to the given variable.

             CHARACTERS

             The following special characters are defined:

    #        The hashtag is the default character for starting a command and is
             subsequently known as the command character or tintin character.
             When loading a command file the command character is set to the
             first character in the file. The character can also be redefined
             using #config.

    ;        The semi-colon is used as the command separator and can be used to
             separate two commands. Multiple commands can be strung together as
             well. Trailing semi-colons are ignored when reading a script file
             as this is a common error.

    { }      Curly brackets aka braces are used for separating multi word command
             arguments, nesting commands, and nesting variables. Braces cannot
             easily be escaped and must always be used in pairs.

    " "      Quote characters are used for strings in the #math, #if, #switch,
             and #case commands. It is however suggested to use a set of braces
             { } to define strings instead, particularly when checking strings
             that may contain quotes.

    !        The exclamation sign is used to repeat commands, see #help history.
             The character can be redefined using #config.

    \        An input line starting with a backslash is sent verbatim if you are
             connected to a server. This character can be configured with
             #config, and is itself sent verbatim when the verbatim config mode
             is enabled.

             CHAT

    Command: #chat {option} {argument}

             The #chat command is used to create peer to peer connections to other
             clients, typically for the purpose of chatting and sending files.
             This is a decentralized chat system, meaning you have to exchange ip
             addresses and port numbers with other users in order to connect to
             them. Chat events are triggered in the startup session.

             #chat {init} {port}
               #chat initialize launches your chat server. The port number is
               optional, and by default 4050 is used as your port. After using
               this command other people can connect to your chat server using
               your ip address and port number, and in turn you can connect to
               other people.
             #chat {name} {name}
               By default your name is set to TinTin, but most servers will
               reject you if there is already someone with the name TinTin
               connected, so one of the first things you'd want to do is
               change your chat name. Your name can include color codes. Some
               names aren't accepted by tt++ chat servers, like the name 'all'
               and names longer than 20 characters.
             #chat {message} {buddy|all} {text}
               This is the main command used for communication. If you use
               #chat message all, the message is marked as public and sent to
               everyone you are connected to.
             #chat {accept} {buddy} {boost}
               Accept a file transfer from a buddy. The boost is optional and
               must be a value between 1 and 1000.
             #chat {call}       {address} {port}
               #chat call is used to connect to another chat server. If you
               omit the port argument the default port (4050) is used.
             #chat {cancel}     {buddy}            Cancel a file transfer
             #chat {color}      {color names}      Set the default color
             #chat {decline}    {buddy}            Decline a file transfer
             #chat {dnd}                           Decline new connections
             #chat {download}   {directory}        Set your download directory
             #chat {emote}      {buddy|all} {text} Send an emote message

             CLASS

    Command: #class {name} {option} {arg}

             The class command is primarily used to assign groups of triggers and
             variables a label so they can be easily removed.

             #class {<name>} {assign} {<argument>}
               Will open the class, execute argument, and close afterwards.
             #class {<name>} {clear}
               Will delete all triggers associated with the given class.
             #class {<name>} {close}
               Close the given class, opening the last open class, if any.
             #class {<name>} {debug} {on|off}
               Toggle debug mode for given class.
             #class {<name>} {kill}
               Will clear, close, and remove the class.
             #class {<name>} {list}
               List all triggers associated with the given class.
             #class {<name>} {load}
               Will load the saved copy of the class from memory.
             #class {<name>} {open}
               Open a class, closing a previously opened class. All triggers
               added afterwards are assigned to this class.
             #class {<name>} {read} {<filename>
               Will open the class, read the file, and close afterwards.
             #class {<name>} {save}
               Will save all triggers of the given class to memory.
             #class {<name>} {size} {<variable>}
               Will store the size of the class in a variable.
             #class {<name>} {write} {<filename>}
               Will write all triggers of the given class to file.

             Keep in mind that you need to use #class save before using
             #class clear and #class load

    Example: #class rich kill;#class rich read poor.tin
             Deletes all triggers of 'rich' class if any. Read 'poor.tin' file,
             all triggers loaded will be assigned to the 'rich' class.

             For xterm 256 colors support use <aaa> to <fff> for RGB foreground
             colors and <AAA> to <FFF> for RGB background colors. For the grayscale
             foreground colors use <g00> to <g23>, for grayscale background colors
             use <G00> to <G23>.

             The tertiary colors are as follows:

             <acf> - Azure            <afc> - Jade
             <caf> - Violet           <cfa> - Lime

    Example: #show <cfa>Lime     <fac>Pink     <fca>Orange

             For 12 bit truecolor use <F000> to <FFFF> for foreground colors and
             <B000> to <BFFF> for background colors.

             For 24 bit truecolor use <F000000> to <FFFFFFF> for foreground
             colors and <B000000> to <BFFFFFF> for background colors.

             If the color code exceeds your configured color mode it will be
             downgraded to the closest match.

             COMMANDS

    Command: #commands {abbreviation}

             Shows all commands, or all commands starting with the given
             abbreviation.

    Related: help, info and statements.

             CONFIG

    Command: #config {option} {argument}

             This allows you to configure various settings, the settings can be
             written to file with the #write command.

             If you configure the global session (the one you see as you start up
             tintin) all sessions started will inherite these settings.

             It's advised to make a configuration file to read on startup if you
             do not like the default settings.

             Use #config without an argument to see your current configuration as
             well as a brief explanation of each config option.

             The following config options are not listed by default:

             #CONFIG {AUTO TAB}      {NUMBER} Buffer lines used for tab completion
             #CONFIG {CHILD LOCK}    {ON|OFF} Enable or disable command input.
             #CONFIG {CONNECT RETRY} {NUMBER} Seconds to try to connect on failure.
             #CONFIG {CONVERT META}  {ON|OFF} Shows color codes and key bindings.
             #CONFIG {DEBUG TELNET}  {ON|OFF} Shows telnet negotiations y/n.
             #CONFIG {HIBERNATE}     {ON|OFF} Enable or disable low CPU usage mode.
             #CONFIG {LOG LEVEL}   {LOW|HIGH} LOW logs server output before triggers.
             #CONFIG {INHERITANCE}   {ON|OFF} Session trigger inheritance y/n.
             #CONFIG {MCCP}          {ON|OFF} Enable or disable MCCP support.
             #CONFIG {RANDOM SEED}   {NUMBER} Seed value used for random numbers.
             #CONFIG {TAB WIDTH}     {NUMBER} Number of spaces used for a tab
             #CONFIG {TINTIN CHAR}   {SYMBOL} Character used for TinTin++ commands.

             CONTINUE

    Command: #continue

             The continue command can be used inside the #FOREACH, #LOOP, #PARSE,
             #WHILE and #SWITCH commands. When #CONTINUE is found, tintin will go
             to the end of the command and proceed as normal, which may be to
             reiterate the command.

    Example: #loop 1 10 cnt {#if {$cnt % 2 == 0} {#continue} {say $cnt}}

    Related: break, foreach, list, loop, parse, repeat, return and while.

             COORDINATES

             When the 0,0 coordinate is in the upper left corner TinTin++ uses
             a y,x / row,col notation, starting at 1,1. Subsequently -1,-1
             will indicate the bottom right corner. This type of argument is
             used by the #showme command.

             When the 0,0 coordinate is in the bottom left corner tintin uses
             a standard x,y notation. This type of argument is used by the
             #map jump command.

             The vast majority of tintin commands use y,x / row,col notation,
             primarily because that is the notation used by the VT100 standard
             used for terminal emulation.

             Squares

             A square argument takes 2 coordinates. The first coordinate defines
             the upper left corner, the last coordinate defines the bottom
             right corner. The upper left corner of the terminal is defined as
             1,1 and the bottom right corner as -1,-1. This type of argument is
             used by #draw, #button and #map offset.

             Panes

             A pane argument takes 4 size values, which are: top pane, bottom
             pane, left pane, right pane. When a negative value is provided the
             size is the maximum size, minus the value. This type of argument
             is used by the #split command.

             Ranges

             A range argument takes 2 values known as the upper bound and lower
             bound. The upper bound (first value) defines the start of the
             range, the lower bound (second value) the end. The first index of
             a range is defined as 1. When a negative value is provides the last
             index is defined as -1. This type of argument is used by #buffer
             and #variable.

             CR

    Command: #cr

             Sends a carriage return to the session.  Useful for aliases that need
             extra carriage returns.

             This command is obsolete as you can accomplish the same using #send
             without an argument or #send {}.

             CURSOR

    Command: #cursor {option} {argument}

             Typing #cursor without an option will show all available cursor
             options, their default binding, and an explanation of their function.

             The cursor command's primarly goal is adding customizable input editing
             with macros. Subsequently many cursor commands only work properly when
             used within a macro or event.

             #cursor flag

             EOL         end of line character(s)
             ECHO        local echo
             OVERTYPE    overtype mode
             KEYPAD      keypad mode

             #cursor macro

             PRESERVE    do not erase the macro from the macro input buffer
             RESET       erase the macro input buffer

             #cursor tab

             CASELESS    makes tab completion caseless
             COMPLETE    makes tab completion work while editing

             DICTIONARY  performs tab completion on the dictionary
             INPUT       performs tab completion on the input history
             LIST        performs tab completion on the tab completion list
             SCROLLBACK  performs tab completion on the scrollback buffer

             BACKWARD    specifies tab completion to go backward
             FORWARD     specifies tab completion to go forward

             Multiple options can/must be specified at once.

             DAEMON

    Command: #daemon {attach|detach|kill|list} [name]

             #daemon provides functionality similar to that of the screen and tmux
             utilities.

             #daemon attach [name]
               The attach option will try to find a daemonized tintin instance and
               take over control. The name argument is optional.

             #daemon detach [name]
               The detach option will daemonize tintin, turning it into a background
               process. The name argument is optional and is useful if you have
               several daemonized tt++ instances running so you can keep them apart.

             #daemon kill [name]
               Kills all daemons or daemons with matching name.

             #daemon list [name]
               List all daemons or daemons with matching name.

             You can launch tintin and attach the first daemonized instance using
             tt++ -R. To attach a named instance use tt++ -R<name>.

             DEBUG

    Command: #debug {listname} {on|off|log}

             Toggles a list on or off. With no argument it shows your current
             settings, as well as the list names that you can debug.

             If you for example set ACTIONS to ON you will get debug information
             whenever an action is triggered.

             #debug {listname} {log} will silently write debugging information to
             the log file, you must be logging in order for this to work.

             Not every list has debug support yet.

             DEFAULT

    Command: #default {commands}

             The default command can only be used within the switch command. When
             the conditional argument of non of the case commands matches the switch
             command's conditional statement the default command is executed.

    Related: case, default, else, elseif, if, switch and regexp.

             DELAY

    Command: #delay {seconds} {command}
    Command: #delay {name} {command} {seconds}

             Delay allows you to have tintin wait the given amount of seconds
             before executing the given command.

             Nanosecond floating point precision is allowed. Delays will fire in
             0.01 second intervals.

             Named delays are treated as one-shot tickers, see #help tick.

    Example: #delay {1} {#show last};#show first
             This will print 'first', and 'last' around one second later.

    Comment: If you want to remove a delay with the #undelay command you can add
             a name as the first argument, be aware this changes the syntax. If
             the name is a number keep in mind that delays with the same numeric
             name will not be overwritten

             DRAW

    Command: #draw [line color] [options] <type> <square> {text}

             The draw commands allows you to draw various types of lines and shapes
             on the screen. The types with a brief description are provided when you
             type #draw without an argument.

             The <square> arguments should exists of two coordinates defining the
             upper left and bottom right corner using row, col, row, col syntax.

             The square arguments can be negative, in which case the coordinates
             are calculated from the opposite side of the screen. In the case the
             screen is 80 columns wide using #draw box 1 60 10 70 will be the
             equivalent of #draw box 1 -21 10 -11, but with different screen
             widths the boxes would be drawn in different places.

             You can prefix the option with a color code or color name to color the
             lines and shapes.

             You can further prefix the option as following:

             ASCII       draw in ASCII mode.

               will draw the map
             RAIN {<VARIABLE>} {[SPAWN]} {[FADE]} {[LEGEND]}
               will draw digital rain SPAWN (0.01-100) FADE (1-100).
             [JOINTED|TOP|LEFT|BOTTOM|RIGHT] SIDE
               will draw one or more sides of a box.
             [GRID] TABLE {[LIST1]} {[LIST2]}
              will draw a table.
             [CURSIVE|FAT|HUGE|SANSSERIF] TILE {[TEXT1]} {[TEXT2]}
               will draw a tile

             All draw types take an optional text argument as long as a valid
             square with enough space has been defined. Text is automatically
             word wrapped and text formatting can be customized with the
             BALIGN, TALIGN, LALIGN, RALIGN, and UALIGN options.

    Example: #draw Blue box 1 1 3 20 {Hello world!}

             ECHO

    Command: #echo {format} {argument1} {argument2} {etc}

             Echo command displays text on the screen with formatting options. See
             the help file for the format command for more information.

             The echo command does not trigger actions.

             As with the #show command you can split the {format} argument up into
             two braced arguments, in which case the 2nd argument is the row number.

    Example: #echo {The current date is %t.} {%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S}
             #echo {[%38s][%-38s]} {Hello World} {Hello World}
             #echo {{this is %s on the top row} {1}} {printed}

             EDIT

    Command: #edit {option} [argument]

             The edit command can be used to turn the default line editor into a
             text editor.

             #edit create [filename] [arguments]
               Create an editor, initialize using the provided arguments.

             #edit load <variable>
               Create an editor, initialize using the provided list variable.

             #edit read <filename>
               Create an editor, initialize using the provided file.

             #edit resume
               Resume editing after a suspension.

             #edit save <variable>
               Save the editor to the provided variable.

             #edit suspend
               Suspend editing, similar to pressing enter except that no
               events are triggered.

             #edit write [filename]
               Write the editor content to file.

    Example: #edit create {bla.txt} {line 1} {line 2}

             ELSE

    Command: #else {commands}

             The else statement should follow an #IF or #ELSEIF statement and is
             only called if the proceeding #IF or #ELSEIF is false.

    Example: #if {1d2 == 1} {smile};#else {grin}

             ELSEIF

    Command: #elseif {conditional} {commands}

             The elseif statement should follow an #IF or #ELSEIF statement and is
             only called when the statement is true and the proceeding #IF and
             #ELSEIF statements are false.

    Example: #if {1d3 == 1} {smirk};#elseif {1d2 == 1} {snicker}

    Related: case, default, else, if, switch and regexp.

             END

    Command: #end {<message>}

             Terminates tintin and return to unix.  On most systems, ctrl-c has
             the same result.

             The message is optional and is printed before tintin exits. When
             using #end {\} tintin will terminate silently.

             ESCAPE CODES

             You may use the escape character \ for various special characters.

             \a    beep the terminal.
             \c    send a control character, \ca for ctrl-a.
             \e    start an escape sequence.
             \f    send a form feed.
             \n    send a line feed.
             \r    send a carriage return.
             \t    send a horizontal tab.
             \x    print an 8 bit character using hexadecimal, \xFF for example.
             \x7B  send the '{' character.
             \x7D  send the '}' character.
             \u    print a 16 bit unicode character, \uFFFD for example.
             \u{}  print a 8-21 bit unicode character, \u{2AF21} for example.
             \U    print a 21 bit unicode character, \U02AF21 for example.
             \v    send a vertical tab

             Ending a line with \ will stop tintin from appending a line feed.
             To escape arguments in an alias or action use %%0 %%1 %%2 etc.

             EVENT

    Command: #event {event type} {commands}

             Events allow you to create triggers for predetermined client events.

             Use #event without an argument to see a list of possible events with
             a brief description. Use #event %* to see the current list of defined
             events. Use #info {events} {on} to see events get thrown.

             Events, like triggers in general, are case sensitive and event names
             must be defined using all upper case letters. Only one event can be
             defined for each event type.

             To enable mouse events use #config mouse_tracking on, to see mouse
             events use #config mouse_tracking info.

             CATCH EVENTS

             CATCH <EVENT>
               Some events can be prefixed with CATCH to interrupt default
               behavior.

             CLASS EVENTS

             CLASS ACTIVATED [CLASS],  CLASS_CLEAR [CLASS],  CLASS CREATED [CLASS],

             FORMAT EVENTS

             REFORMAT <MESSAGE>     Use #return to change MESSAGE

             GAG EVENTS

             GAG <EVENT>
               Some events can be prefixed with GAG to gag default system
               messages.

             To see all events trigger use #info event on. Since this can get
             rather spammy it's possible to gag event info messages.

    Example: #event {SESSION CONNECTED} {#read mychar.tin}

    Comment: You can remove an event with the #unevent command.

             FOREACH

    Command: #foreach {list} {variable} {commands}

             For each item in the provided list the foreach statement will update
             the given variable and execute the command part of the statement. List
             elements must be separated by braces or semicolons.

    Example: #foreach {bob;tim;kim} {name} {tell $name Hello}
    Example: #foreach {{bob}{tim}{kim}} {name} {tell $name Hello}

    Related: break, continue, list, loop, parse, repeat, return and while.

             FORMAT

    Command: #format {variable} {format} {argument1} {argument2} {etc}

             Allows you to store a string into a variable in the exact same way
             C's sprintf works with a few enhancements and limitations like a
             maximum of 30 arguments.

             If you use #format inside an alias or action you must escape %1s as
             %+1s or %%1s or %\1s so the %1 isn't substituted by the trigger.

             #format {test} {%+9s} {string}  pad string with up to 9 spaces
             #format {test} {%-9s} {string}  post pad string with up to 9 spaces

             FUNCTION

    Command: #function {name} {operation}

             Functions allow you to execute a script within a line of text, and
             replace the function call with the line of text generated by the
             function.

             Be aware that each function should use the #return command at the
             end of the function with the result, or set the {result} variable.

             To use a function use the @ character before the function name.
             The function arguments should be placed between braces behind the
             function name with argument separated by semicolons.

             Functions can be escaped by adding additional @ signs.

    Example: #function test #return 42;#showme @@test{}

             The function itself can use the provided arguments which are stored
             in %1 to %99, with %0 holding all arguments.

    Example: #function {rnd} {#math {result} {1 d (%2 - %1 + 1) + %1 - 1}}
             #show A random number between 100 and 200: @rnd{100;200}

    Example: #function gettime {#format result %t %H:%M}
             #show The current time is @gettime{}

    Comment: You can remove a function with the #unfunction command.

    Related: format, local, math, replace, script and variable.

             GAG

    Command: #gag {string}

             Removes any line that contains the string.

    Comment: See '#help action', for more information about triggers.

             There are a system messages that can be gagged using gag events.

    Comment: You can remove a gag with the #ungag command.

             GREP

    Command: #grep [page] {search string}

             This command allows you to search for matching lines in your scroll
             back buffer. The amount of matches shown equals your screen size. If
             you want to search back further use the optional page number. You can
             use wildcards for better search results. Be aware the search string
             is case sensitive, which can be disabled by using %i.

             By default grep searches from the end of the scrollback buffer to the
             beginning, this can be reversed by using a negative page number.

    Example: #grep Bubba tells you
             This will show all occasions where bubba tells you something.

    Related: buffer, echo and showme.

             HELP

    Command: #help {subject}

             Without an argument #help will list all available help subjects.

             Using #help %* will display all help entries.

    Related: commands, debug, ignore, info, message and statements.

             HIGHLIGHT

    Command: #highlight {string} {color names} {priority}

             The highlight command is used to change the color of incoming text.

             Available color options are:

             reset      - resets the color state to default
             light      - turns the color light.
             dark       - turns the color dark.
             underscore - underscores the text.
             blink      - makes the text blink.
             reverse    - reverse foreground and background color.
             b          - makes next color the background color.

             Available color names are:

             <abd> - azure                 <acf> - Azure
             <aad> - blue                  <aaf> - Blue
             <add> - cyan                  <aff> - Cyan
             <aaa> - ebony                 <bbb> - Ebony
             <ada> - green                 <afa> - Green
             <adb> - jade                  <afc> - Jade
             <bda> - lime                  <cfa> - Lime
             <dad> - magenta               <faf> - Magenta
             <dba> - orange                <fca> - Orange
             <dab> - pink                  <fac> - Pink
             <daa> - red                   <faa> - Red
             <ccc> - silver                <eee> - Silver
             <cba> - tan                   <eda> - Tan
             <bad> - violet                <caf> - Violet
             <ddd> - white                 <fff> - White
             <dda> - yellow                <ffa> - Yellow

             Colors can be provided as either a color code or one of the valid color
             names. If the color name is in all lower case a dark color is printed.
             If the first letter of the color name is capitalized a light color is
             printed.

             The %1-99 variables can be used as 'wildcards' that will match with any
             text. They are useful for highlighting a complete line. The %0 variable
             should never be used in highlights.

             You may start the string to highlight with a ^ to only highlight text
             if it begins the line.

             Besides color names also <abc> color codes can be used.

    Example: #high {Valgar} {reverse underscore Jade}
             Prints every occurrence of 'Valgar' in underscored reverse video Jade.

    Example: #high {^You{|r} %1} {light cyan}
             Prints every line that starts with 'You' in light cyan.

    Example: #high {Bubba} {red underscore b Green}
             Highlights the name Bubba as red underscored text on green background.

    Comment: See '#help action', for more information about triggers.

    Comment: See '#help substitute', for more advanced color substitution.

    Comment: This command only works with ANSI/VT100 terminals or emulators.

    Comment: You can remove a highlight with the #unhighlight command.

    Related: action, gag, prompt and substitute.

             HISTORY

    Command: #history {delete}                    Delete the last command.
             #history {get}    {variable} {range} Store list in variable.
             #history {insert} {command}          Insert a command.
             #history {list}                      Display the command history.
             #history {read}   {filename}         Read a command history from file.
             #history {write}  {filename}         Write a command history to file.

             Without an argument all available options are shown.

             By default all commands are saved to the history list and the history
             list is saved between sessions in the ~/.tintin/history.txt file.

             You can set the character to repeat a command in the history with the
             #config {REPEAT CHAR} {<character>} configuration option, by default
             this is set to the exclamation mark.

             You can use ! by itself to repeat the last command, or !<text> to
             repeat the last command starting with the given text.

             You can use #config {REPEAT ENTER} {ON} to repeat the last command
             when you press enter on an empty line.

             You can press ctrl-r to enter an interactive regex enabled history
             search mode, or by issuing #cursor {history search}.

             TinTin++ tries to bind the arrow up and down keys to scroll through
             the history list by default. You can bind these with a macro yourself
             using #cursor {history next} and #cursor {history prev}. Many #cursor
             commands only work properly when bound with a macro.

    Related: alias, cursor, keypad, macro, speedwalk and tab.

             IF

    Command: #if {conditional} {commands if true} {commands if false}

             The #if command works similar to an if statement in other languages,
             and is based on the way C handles its conditional statements.
             When an #if command is encountered, the conditional statement is
             evaluated, and if TRUE (any non-zero result) the commands are executed.

             The conditional is evaluated exactly the same as in the #math command,
             if the conditional evaluates as anything except 0 the commands are
             executed. See the 'math' helpfile for more information.

             To handle the case where an if statement is false it can be followed
             by the #else command. Alternatively, the else can be provided as the
             third argument.

    Example: #action {%0 gives you %1 gold coins.} {#if {%1 > 5000} {thank %0}}
             If someone gives you more than 5000 coins, thank them.

    Example: #alias {k} {#if {"%0" == ""} {kill $target};#else {kill %0}}

    Example: #if {"%0" == "{bli|bla}"} {#showme %0 is either bli or bla.}

    Related: case, default, else, elseif, math, switch and regexp.

             IGNORE

    Command: #ignore {listname} {on|off}

             Toggles a list on or off. With no arguments it shows your current
             settings, as well as the list names that you can ignore.

             If you for example use #IGNORE ACTIONS ON actions will no longer
             trigger. Not every list can be ignored.

             What is TinTin++?

             TinTin++ is a client program specialized to help playing muds. This is
             a souped up version of TINTIN III with many new features.

             Giving Credit Where Credit is Due

             None of this work would be possible, without the work done by Peter
             Unold. He was the author of TINTIN III, the base of TinTin++. Hats off
             to ya Peter. You started the ball rolling.

             Introduction

             If you're new to TinTin++ a good place to start is the introduction,
             which should be linked below.

             INFO

    Command: #info {listname} {LIST|ON|OFF|SAVE}

             Without an argument info displays the settings of every tintin list.

             By providing the name of a list and the LIST option it shows all
             triggers/variables associated with that list. With the SAVE option
             this data is written to the info variable.

             #info arguments will show matched trigger arguments.
             #info big5toutf will show the big5 to utf8 translation table.
             #info cpu will show information about tintin's cpu usage.
             #info environ will show the environment variables.
             #info input will show information about the input line.
             #info matches will show matched command arguments.
             #info mccp will show information about data compression.
             #info memory will show information about the memory stack.
             #info output will show information about the mud output buffers.
             #info stack will show the low level debugging stack.
             #info session will show information on the session.
             #info sessions will show information on all sessions.
             #info system will show some system information.
             #info tokenizer will show information about the script stack.
             #info unicode will show information on the provided character.

             INTRODUCTION

             On this page you'll find an introduction to using TinTin++. Additional
             information can be found in the individual help sections.

             Starting and Ending

             The syntax for starting TinTin++ is: ./tt++ [command file]

             Read more about the command file in the files section below. Remember
             one thing though. All actions, aliases, substitutions, etc, defined
             when starting up TinTin++ are inherited by all sessions.

             If you want to exit TinTin++ type '#end' or press ctrl-d on an empty
             line.

             For the WinTin++ users, if you want to paste text use shift-insert,
             text is automatically copied upon selection. This is typical Linux
             behavior, but it can take some getting used to.

             Basic features

             I'll start by explaining some of the very basic and important features:

             All TinTin++ commands starts with a '#'.

    Example: #help -- #help is a client command, and isn't sent to the server.

             All TinTin++ commands can be abbreviated when typed.

             #he -- Typing #he is the same as typing #help though it's suggested to
             use at least 3 letter abbreviations just in case another command is
             added that starts with 'he'.

             All commands can be separated with a ';'.

             n;l dragon;s;say Dan Dare is back! -- do these 4 commands
             There are 3 ways ';'s can be overruled.

             \say Hello ;) -- Lines starting with a '\' aren't parsed by TinTin++.
             say Hello \;) -- The escape character can escape 1 letter.
             #config verbatim on -- Everything is sent as is except '#' commands.

             Connecting to a server

    Command: #session {session name} {server address} {port}

    Example: #session someone tintin.sourceforge.net 4321

             You can have more than one session, in which case you can switch
             between sessions typing #<session name>.

             You can get a list of all sessions by typing: #session. The current
             active session is marked with (active). Snooped sessions with
             (snooped). MCCP sessions (compression) with (mccp 2) and (mccp 3).

             Split

    Command: #split

             The split command will create a separated input and output area.

             Using the #prompt command you can capture the prompt and place it on
             the split line. To get rid of the split interface you can use #unsplit
             which will restore the terminal settings to default.

             Alias

    Command: #alias {name} {commands}

             The syntax of the #alias command is almost like alias in csh.
             Use this command to define aliases. The variables %0, %1.. %9 contain
             the arguments to the aliased command as follows:
             the %0 variable contains all the arguments.
             the %1 variable contains the 1st argument
             ....
             the %9 variable contains the 9th argument

    Example: #alias greet say Greetings, most honorable %1

             If you want an alias to execute more commands, you must use braces.

    Example: #alias ws {wake;stand}

             To delete an alias use the #unalias command.

             WARNING! TinTin++ doesn't baby sit, and hence does not check for
             recursive aliases! You can avoid recursion by escaping the entire
             line.

    Example: #alias put \put %1 in %2

             Or by using the send command.

    Example: #alias put #send put %1 in %2

             Action

    Command: #action {action-text} {commands}

             Use this command to define an action to take place when a particular
             text appears on your screen. There are 99 variables you can use as
             wildcards in the action-text.

             These variables are %1, %2, %3 .... %9, %10, %11 ... %97, %98, %99.

    Example: #action {You are hungry} {get bread bag;eat bread}

    Example: #action {%1 has arrived.} shake %1 -- shake hands with people arriving.

    Example: #action {%1 tells you '%2'}
                       {tell bob %1 told me '%2'} -- forward tells.

    Example: #action {tells you} #bell -- beep on tell.

             You can have TinTin++ ignore actions if you type '#ignore actions on'.

             You can see what commands TinTin++ executes when an action triggers
             by typing '#debug actions on'.

             You can remove actions with the #unaction command.

             Command files

             When you order TinTin++ to read a command file, it parses all the text
             in the file. You can use command files to keep aliases/actions in,
             login to a server (name, password etc..) and basically all kinds of
             commands.

             You can make the command files with either a text editor (suggested),
             or use the #write command to write out a file.

             Commands for files:

             #read filename -- read and execute the file.

             #write filename -- write all actions/aliases/substitutes/etc known for
             the current session to a file.

    Example:
             #session x mymud.com 1234
             myname
             mypassword
             #split
             #action {^You are hungry.} {eat bread}

             If you save the above five lines to a file named 'mymud.tin' you can
             use 'tt++ mymud.tin' to start tintin and execute the file, connecting
             you to your mud, logging in, enabling split mode, and setting an action
             to eat a bread whenever you go hungry.

             Highlight

    Command: #highlight {text} {color}

             This command works a bit like #action. The purpose of this command is
             to substitute text from the server with color you provide. This command
             is a simplified version of the #substitute command.

    Example: #high {Snowy} {light yellow}

    Example: #high {%*Snowy%*} {light yellow}

             Use #unhigh to delete highlights.

             Speedwalk

             If you type a command consisting ONLY of letters and numbers n, e, s,
             w, u, d - then this command can be interpreted as a serie of movement
             commands.

    Example: ssw2n -- go south, south, west, north, north

             If you have problems with typing some commands that actually ONLY
             consists of these letters, then type them in CAPS. For example when
             checking the NEWS or when asked to enter NEW as your name.

             You must enable speedwalking with: #config speedwalk on.

             Ticker

    Command: #ticker {name} {commands} {seconds}

             The name can be whatever you want it to be, and is only required for
             the unticker command. The commands will be executed every x amount of
             seconds, which is specified in the interval part.

    Example: #tick {tick} {#delay 50 #show 10 SECONDS TO TICK!;#show TICK!!!} {60}

             This creates a ticker with the name {tick} which will print TICK!!!,
             as well as print a warning when the next tick will occure.

             You can remove tickers with #untick

             Repeating Commands

             You can repeat a command, the syntax is: #number command

    Example: #5 cackle -- if you just killed bob the wizard.
    Example: #10 {buy bread;put bread bag} -- repeat these 2 commands 10 times.
    Example: #100 ooc w00t w00t!!!!! -- nochannel yourself.

             History

             TinTin++ has a limited subset of the csh history features.

             ! -- repeat the last command
             !cast -- repeat the last command starting with cast
             ctrl-r -- enter the reverse history search mode.

             Map commands

             TinTin++ has a powerful highly configurable automapper. Whenever
             you type n/ne/e/se/s/sw/w/nw/n/u/d tt++ tries to keep track of your
             movement.

             Commands for map:

             #map create -- create a map.
             #map goto 1 -- go to the first room in the map, created by default.
             #map map -- display the map.
             #map undo -- undo your last map alteration.
             #map write <filename> -- save the map to file.
             #map read <filename> -- load a map from file.

             There are many other map options and it's beyond the scope of this
             help section to explain everything there is to know, but I'll give
             a set of commands that will get most people started.

             #map create
             #split 12 1
             #map flag unicode on
             #map flag vt on
             #map goto 1

             These commands will create a 12 row vt100 split section at the top of
             your screen where a map drawn using unicode characters is displayed.

    Example: #action {There is no exit in that direction.} {#map undo}

             The map will be automatically created as you move around.

             Help

    Command: #help {subject}

             The help command is your friend and contains the same helpfiles
             inside TinTin++ as are available on the website. If you type #help
             without an argument you will see the various available help subjects
             which try to explain the TinTin++ commands and features in greater
             detail. Entries in cyan describe commands, while entries in white
             describe various features, often in greater detail.

             That's all for the introduction, enjoy

             KEYPAD

             When TinTin++ starts up it sends \e= to the terminal to enable the
             terminal's application keypad mode, which can be disabled using
             #cursor flag keypad off.

          Configuration A           Configuration B           Configuration C

             With keypad mode disabled numlock on will give you configuration A,
             and numlock off will give you configuration B. With keypad mode
             enabled you'll get configuration C.

             Terminals that support keypad mode

             Linux Console, PuTTY, MinTTY, Eterm, aterm.

             Terminals that do not support keypad mode

             RXVT on Cygwin, Windows Console, Gnome Terminal, Konsole.

             Peculiar Terminals

             RXVT requires turning off numlock to enable configuration C.

             Xterm may require disabling Alt/NumLock Modifiers (num-lock) in the
             ctrl left-click menu. Or edit ~/.Xresources and add
             XTerm*VT100.numLock:false

             Mac OS X Terminal requires enabling 'strict vt100 keypad behavior' in
             Terminal -> Window Settings -> Emulation.

             KILL

    Command: #kill {list} {pattern}

             Without an argument, the kill command clears all lists.  Useful if
             you don't want to exit tintin to reload your command files.

             With one argument a specific list can be cleared.

             With two arguments the triggers in the chosen list that match the
             given pattern will be removed.

    Example: #kill alias %*test*

             #line verbatim <argument>
               Argument is executed verbatim, prohibiting variable and function
               substitutions.

             #line verbose <argument>
               Argument is executed with most system messages enabled.

             When using #line log and logging in html format use \c< \c> \c& \c" to
             log a literal < > & and ".

             LIST

    Command: #list {variable} {option} {argument}

             #list {var} {add} <items>              Add <items> to the list
             #list {var} {clear}                    Empty the given list
             #list {var} {collapse} <separator>     Turn list into a variable
             #list {var} {copy} <variable>          Copy variable to the list
             #list {var} {create} <items>           Create a list using <items>
             #list {var} {delete} <index> [amount]  Delete the item at <index>,
                                                    the [amount] is optional.
             #list {var} {explode} <separator>      Turn variable into a list
             #list {var} {indexate} [key]           Index a list table for sorting
             #list {var} {insert} <index> <item>    Insert <item> at given index
             #list {var} {filter} <keep> [remove]   Filter with keep / remove regex
             #list {var} {find} <regex> <variable>  Return the found index
             #list {var} {get} <index> <variable>   Copy an item to {variable}
             #list {var} {numerate}                 Renumber a table or list
             #list {var} {order} [items]            Sort list alphanumerically
             #list {var} {refine} <keep> [remove]   Filter with keep / remove math
                                                    with &0 holding the value
             #list {var} {reverse}                  Reverse the list
             #list {var} {shuffle}                  Shuffle the list
             #list {var} {set} <index> <item>       Change the item at {index}
             #list {var} {simplify} [items]         Turn list into a simple list
             #list {var} {size} <variable>          Copy list size to {variable}
             #list {var} {sort} [items]             Sort list alphabetically, if
                                                    an item is given it's added.
             #list {var} {swap} <index> <index>     Swap two items
             #list {var} {tokenize} <string>        Create a character list

             The index should be between +1 and the list's size. You can also give
             a negative value, in which case -1 equals the last item in the list,
             -2 the second last, etc.

             When inserting an item a positive index will prepend the item at the
             given index, while a negative index will append the item.

             The add and create options allow using multiple items, as well
             as semicolon separated items.

             The get option will return the item or the indexation. Use
             $var[<index>] to retrieve the nested data of a list table.

             The order, sort and simplify options will perform the operation on
             the given list. Optional items can be provided which are added to
             the new or existing list before the operation is executed. Sorting
             and ordering are stable.

             The indexate option prepares a table or list table for order, sort,
             filter, refine, and find operations for the given key. It is similar
             to the SELECT option in SQL. All entries must contain the given key.

             A size of 0 is returned for an empty or non-existent list. You can
             directly access the size of a list using &var[].

             You can directly access elements in a list variable using $var[+1],
             $var[+2], $var[-1], etc.

             LISTS

             There are several different types of lists in tintin which behave in a
             fairly universal manner. To properly explain lists it's easiest to
             explain the most basic variable type first before discussing more
             complex types.

           - Basic variable: The standard key = value variable.

           - Simple list: A string that contains semicolon delimited fields.
             {a;b;c}. Can be saved as a variable.

           - Brace list: A string in which fields are delimited with braces.
             {a}{b}{c}. Brace lists cannot be stored as a variable because tables
             use braces as well, they must be stored as a simple list instead.

           - Table: Think of this as variables nested within another variable. Or
              as variables contained within another variable.

           - List: A table that uses integers for its indexes. Also known as an
             array. The #list command is a utility command for using tables as
             arrays.

             Simple Variables

    Example:
             #variable {simple} {Hello World!}
             #show $simple

             To see if the 'simple' variable exists you can use &{simple} which
             will display 0 if the variable does not exist, or the variable's index
             if it exists.

             If you have multiple variables they are sorted alphabetically and
             numerically. While it's not all that relevant for simple variables,
             the first variable has index 1, the second variable index 2, and so
             on.

             Variable names need to start with a letter and only exist of letters,
             numbers, and underscores. If you need to use a non standard variable
             name this is possible using braces.

    Example: #variable {:)} {Happy Happy!};#show ${:)}

             Variables can be accessed using their index. While primarily useful
             for tables it is possible to do this for simple variables. Use +1 for
             the first variable, +2 for the second variable, etc. Use -1 for the
             last variable, -2 for the second last variable, etc.

    Example: #show The first variable is: *{+1} with value: ${+1}

             Removing Variables

             To remove a variable, use #unvariable or #unvar (every command can be
             abbreviated). It's possible to remove multiple variables at once
             using #unvar {var 1} {var 2} {etc}

             Variables are unique to each session, so if you have multiple
             sessions, removing a variable from one session won't remove it from
             other sessions.

             If you remove a table variable, all variables contained within that
             table variable are removed as well.

             Simple Lists

             A simple list is a string that contains semicolon delimited fields.
             Commands can be entered as simple lists, for example:
             #show {a};#show {b} will execute a single line as two commands.

             Several commands take a simple list as their input, these are:
             #foreach, #line substitute, #path load, #list create, and #highlight.

             Brace Lists

             A brace list is a string in which fields are delimited with braces.
             Most commands take a brace list for their arguments, for example:
             #session {x} {mud.com} {1234} {mud.tin}. The session command takes
             4 arguments, the 4th argument (command file) is optional.

             Commands that take a simple list as their input will also accept a
             brace list, keep in mind you'll have to embed the brace list in an
             extra set of braces, for example: #path load {{n}{s}{w}{w}}, which is
             identical to: #path load {n;s;w;w}.

             Brace lists cannot be stored as variables because TinTin++ will
             confuse them with tables. You can convert a brace list to a table
             variable using: #list {bracelist} {create} {{a}{b}{c}} this will look
             internally as: {{1}{a}{2}{b}{3}{c}}. You can then convert this table
             back to a simple list using: #list {bracelist} {simplify} which will
             change it to {a;b;c}.

             Braces cannot easily be escaped in TinTin++. Using \{ or \} will not
             work. The reason for this is due to several factors, but primarily
             backward compatibility. To escape braces you must define them using
             hexadecimal notation using \x7B and \x7D. See #help escape for a list
             of escape options, and the help file will also remind you of how to
             escape braces.

             Tables

             Tables are key/value pairs stored within a variable. Tables are also
             known as associative arrays, dictionaries, maps, nested variables,
             structures, and probably a couple of other names. There are several
             ways to create and access tables.

    Example: #variable {friendlist} {{bob}{bob@mail.com} {bubba}{sunset@gmail.com}}

             This will create a friendlist with two entries, the key is the name of
             the friend, the value is the email address of the friend. You can see
             the email address of bob using: #show {$friendlist[bob]}. You can
             also define this table as following:

    Example:
             #variable {friendlist[bob]} {bob@mail.com}
             #variable {friendlist[bubba]} {sunset@gmail.com}

             This would create the exact same table as the single line declaration
             used previously. To see the first key in the table use:
             *friendlist[+1], to see the first value in the table use:
             $friendlist[+1]. To see the size of the table use &friendlist[]. To
             print a bracelist of all friends use *friendlist[], to print a
             bracelist of all friends whose name starts with the letter 'a' you
             would use: *friendlist[a%*]. Similarly to see the number of friends
             you have whose name ends with the letter 'b' you would use:
             &friendlist[%*b].

             See #help regexp for a brief overview of regular expression options.
             While TinTin++ supports PCRE (perl-compatible regular expressions), it
             embeds them within its own regular expression syntax that is simpler
             and less invasive, while still allowing the full power of PCRE for
             those who need it.

    Example: #unvariable {friendlist[bubba]}

             This would remove {bubba} from the friendlist. To remove the entire
             friendlist you would use: #unvariable {friendlist}.

    Example: #variable {friendlist} {{bob} {{email}{bob@ma.il} {phone}{123456789}}}

             There is no limit to the number of nests, simply add more braces. To
             see Bob's email in this example you would use:
             #show {$friendlist[bob][email]}.

             To merge two tables the #cat command can be used.
    Example:
             #variable {bli} {{a}{1}{b}{2}}
             #variable {blo} {{c}{3}{d}{4}}
             #cat {blo} {$bli}

             Lists

             Tables are sorted alphabetically with the exception of numbers which
             are sorted numerically. If you want to determine the sorting order
             yourself you can use use the #list command which helps you to use
             tables as arrays.

    Example: #action {%1 chats %2} {#list chats add {%0}}

             Each time a chat is received it's added to the end of the 'chats' list
             variable. If you type #variable chats this might look like:

             #VARIABLE {chats}
             {
                     {1} {Bubba chats Hi}
                     {2} {Bob chats Hi bub}
                     {3} {Bubba chats Bye}
                     {4} {Bob chats bub bye}
             }

             Parsing

             There are various ways to parse lists and tables, using either #loop,
             #foreach, #while, or #<number>.

             #loop takes two numeric arguments, incrementing or decrementing the
             first number until it matches the second number. The value of the loop
             counter is stored in the provided variable.

             #foreach takes either a simple list or a brace list as its first
             argument. Foreach will go through each item in the list and store the
             value in the provided variable.

             #while will perform an if check on the first argument, if the result
             is true it will execute the commands in the second argument. Then it
             performs an if check on the first argument again. It will continue to
             repeat until the if check returns 0 or the loop is interrupted with a
             control flow command. It takes special care to avoid infinite loops.

             #<number> will execute the provided argument 'number' times. For
             example: #4 {#show beep! \a}

             Here are some examples.

    Example: #list friends create {bob;bubba;zorro}

             Internally this looks like {{1}{bob}{2}{bubba}{3}{zorro}} and the
             list can be parsed in various ways.

    Example: #foreach {$friends[%*]} {name} {#show $name}

    Example: #foreach {*friends[%*]} {i} {#show $friends[$i]}

    Example: #loop {1} {&friends[]} {i} {#show $friends[+$i]}

    Example: #math i 1;#while {&friends[+$i]} {#show $friends[+$i];
             #math i $i + 1}

    Example: #math i 1;#&friends[] {#show $friends[+$i];#math i $i + 1}

             Each of the five examples above performs the same task; printing the
             three names in the friends list.

             If you want to get a better look at what goes on behind the scenes
             while executing scripts you can use '#debug all on'. To stop seeing
             debug information use '#debug all off'.

             List Tables

             List tables are also known as databases and the #list command has
             several options to manipulate them.

             For these options to work properly all tables need to have identical
             keys. Here is an example list table.

             #var {friendlist}
             {
                 {1}{{name}{bob} {age}{54}}
                 {2}{{name}{bubba} {age}{21}}
                 {3}{{name}{pamela} {age}{36}}
             }

             To sort the list table by age you would use:

             #list friendlist indexate age
             #list friendlist order

             To remove everyone whose name starts with a 'b' you would use:

             #list friendlist indexate name
             #list friendlist filter {} {b%*}

             The filter option only supports regular expressions. To filter
             using mathematics you would loop through the list backwards:

             #loop &friendlist[] 1 index
             {
                 #if {$friendlist[+$index][age] < 30}
                 {
                     #list friendlist delete $index
                 }
             }

             Alternatively you can use the refine option.

             #list friendlist indexate age
             #list friendlist refine {&0 >= 30}

             To add an item to a list table there are two options:

             #list friendlist add {{{name}{hobo} {age}{42}}}
             #list friendlist insert -1 {{name}{hobo} {age}{42}}

             Optimization

             TinTin++ tables are exceptionally fast while they remain under 100
             items. Once a table grows beyond 10000 items there can be performance
             issues when inserting and removing items in the beginning or middle of
             the table.

             The plan is to eventually implement an indexable and flexible data
             structure for large tables.

             If you load a large table from file it's important to make sure it's
             sorted, when using #write to save a table it's automatically sorted.

             If you notice performance issues on large tables it's relatively easy
             to create a hash table.

    Example:

             #alias {sethash}
             {
                 #format hash %H %1;
                 #math hash1 $hash % 100;
                 #math hash2 $hash / 100 % 100;
                 #var hashtable[$hash1][$hash2][%1] %2
             }

             #function {gethash}
             {
                 #format hash %H %1;
                 #math hash1 $hash % 100;
                 #math hash2 $hash / 100 % 100;
                 #return $hashtable[$hash1][$hash2][%1]
             }

             #alias {test}
             {
                 sethash bli hey;
                 sethash bla hi;
                 sethash blo hello;
                 #show The value of bla is: @gethash{bla}
             }

             The above script will rapidly store and retrieve over 1 million items.
             Looping through a hash table is relatively easy as well.

    Example:

             #alias {showhash}
             {
                 #foreach {*hashtable[%*]} {hash1}
                 {
                     #foreach {*hashtable[$hash1][%*]} {hash2}
                     {
                         #echo {%-20s = %s}
                                            {hashtable[$hash1][$hash2]}
                                            {$hashtable[$hash1][$hash2]}
                     }
                 }
            }

    Related: break, continue, foreach, loop, parse, repeat, return and while.

             LOCAL

    Command: #local {variable name} {text to fill variable}

             The local command sets a local variable. Unlike a regular variable
             a local variable will only stay in memory for the duration of the
             event that created it. They are accessed in the same way as a
             regular variable.

             Commands that store information to a variable will use a local variable
             if it exists.

             Avoid setting the result variable as local in a function. Similarly,
             it is best to avoid setting a local variable that is identical to an
             existing regular variable.

    Example: #alias {swap} {#local x %0;#replace x {e} {u};#show $x}

    Comment: You can remove a local variable with the #unlocal command.

             LOG

    Command: #log {option} {argument}

             The log command allows logging session output to file.

             #config log_level <low|high>
               Default is high. Low, logs server output before triggers.

             #config log_mode <html|plain|raw>
               Set the log's data type to either html, plain, or raw.

             #log append <filename>
               Start logging to the given file, if the file already exists it won't
               be overwritten and data will be appended to the end.

             #log make <directory>
               Create the given directory.

             #log move <filename_1> <filename_2>
               Move filename_1 to filename_2. This can be any file and doesn't need
               to be a log file.

             #log overwrite <filename>
               Start logging to the given file, if the file already exists it will
               be overwritten.

             #log off
               Stop logging.

             #log remove <filename>
               Remove the file. This can be any file and doesn't need to be a log
               file.

             #log timestamp <format>
               When set the timestamp will be prepended to each line logged to file.
               The format will be formatted as a date using the strftime format
               specifiers as described in #help time.

    Related: read, scan, textin, time and write.

             LOOP

    Command: #loop {<start>} {<finish>} {<variable>} {commands}

             Like a for statement, loop will loop from start to finish incrementing
             or decrementing by 1 each time through.  The value of the loop counter
             is stored in the provided variable, which you can use in the commands.

    Example: #loop 1 3 loop {get all $loop.corpse}
             This equals 'get all 1.corpse;get all 2.corpse;get all 3.corpse'.

    Example: #loop 3 1 cnt {drop $cnt\.key}
             This equals 'drop 3.key;drop 2.key;drop 1.key'.

    Related: break, continue, foreach, list, parse, repeat, return and while.

             MACRO

    Command: #macro {key sequence} {commands}

             Macros allow you to make tintin respond to function keys.

             The key sequence sent to the terminal when pressing a function key
             differs for every OS and terminal. To find out what sequence is sent
             you can enable the CONVERT META config option.

             Another option is pressing ctrl-v, which will enable CONVERT META for
             the next key pressed.

             If you only want a key sequence to trigger at the start of an input
             line prefix the key sequence with ^.

    Example: #macro {(press ctrl-v)(press F1)} {#show \e[2J;#buffer lock}
             Clear the screen and lock the window when you press F1, useful when the
             boss is near.

    Example: #macro {\eOM} {#cursor enter}
             Makes the keypad's enter key work as an enter in keypad mode.

    Example: #macro {^nn} {n}
             Makes pressing n twice on an empty line execute north.

    Comment: Not all terminals properly initialize the keypad key sequences.
             If this is the case you can still use the keypad, but instead of the
             arrow keys use ctrl b, f, p, and n.

    Comment: You can remove a macro with the #unmacro command.

             MAP

    Command: #map

             The map command is the backbone of the auto mapping feature.

             #map at <exit|vnum> <command>
               Execute the command at the given exit or vnum.

             #map center <x> <y> <z>
               Sets displaying center of the map viewer, default is 0 0 0.

             #map color <field> [value]
               Sets the map color for the given color field. Use #map color reset
               to restore colors to default.

             #map create <size>
               Creates a new map and room 1. The default size is 50000 rooms.

             #map destroy {area|world} <name>
               Deletes the map or given area.

             #map delete <exit|vnum>
               Deletes the room for the given exit or vnum.

             #map dig <exit|vnum> [new|<vnum>]
               Creates an exit for the given exit name. If no valid exit name
               is given or no existing room is found a new room is created.
               Useful for portal links and other alternative forms of
               transportation. If the 'new' argument is provided all existing
               rooms are ignored and a new room is created. If a room vnum is
               given as the second argument an exit will be created leading
               to the given room vnum. If the room vnum doesn't exist a new
               room is created.

             #map entrance <exit> <option> <arg> [both]
               Set the entrance data for the given exit. You must specify a
               valid two-way exit for this to work.

             #map exit <exit> <option> <arg> [both]
               Set the exit data. Useful with a closed door where you can
               set the exit command: '#map exit e command {open east;e}'.
               Use #map exit <exit> for a list of available options.
               Use #map exit <exit> save to save all exit data.

             #map exitflag <exit> <AVOID|BLOCK|HIDE|INVIS> [on|off]
               Set exit flags. See #map roomflag for more info.

             #map explore <exit>
               Explores the given exit until a dead end or an
               intersection is found. The route is stored in #path and can
               subsequently be used with #walk. Useful for long roads.

             #map find <name> <exits> <desc> <area> <note> <terrain> <flag>
               searches for the given room name. If found the shortest path
               from your current location to the destination is calculated.
               The route is stored in #path and can subsequently be used with
               the various #path commands. If #map flag nofollow is set it
               will store the exit commands instead of the exit names.

               If <exits> is provided all exits must be matched, if
               <roomdesc>, <roomarea> or <roomnote> or <roomterrain> or
               <roomflag> is provided these are matched as well against the
               room to be found.

               These search options are also available for the at, delete,
               goto, link, list and run commands.

             #map flag asciigraphics
               Takes up more space but draws a more detailed
               map that displays the ne se sw nw exits and room symbols.

             #map flag asciivnums
               Display room vnums if asciigraphics is enabled.

             #map flag direction
               Display an arrow on the map showing the direction of your
               last movement command.

             #map flag fast
               Limit coordinate searches to a 50 room radius. Useful to
               speed up map drawing and room creation on large maps.

             #map flag nofollow
               When you enter movement commands the map will no longer
               automatically follow along. Useful for MSDP and GMCP
               automapping scripts. When you use #map find in nofollow
               mode it will store the exit command instead of the exit
               name into the path.

             #map flag pancake
               Makes the map display rooms above or below you. You can use
               #map color room  for a color gradient.

             #map flag quiet
               Silence map messages when creating new rooms through movement.

             #map flag static
               Will make the map static so new rooms are no longer
               created when walking into an unmapped direction. Useful when
               you're done mapping and regularly bump into walls accidentally
               creating a new room. #map dig etc will still work.

             #map flag symbolgraphics
               Draw a 1x1 map using the defined room symbols.

             #map flag terrain
               Fill up empty space surrounding rooms with terrain symbols

             #map flag vtgraphics
               Enables vt line drawing on some terminals

             #map flag vtmap
               Will enable the vtmap which is shown in the top split
               screen if you have one. You can create a 16 rows high top
               screen by using '#split 16 1'.

             #map get <option> <variable> [vnum]
               Store a map value into a variable, if no vnum is given the
               current room is used. Use 'all' as the option to store all
               values as a table.

             #map get roomexits <variable>
               Store all room exits into variable.

             #map global <room vnum>
               Set the vnum of a room that contains global
               exits, for example an exit named 'recall' that leads to the
               recall location. The room can contain multiple exits, in case
               there are multiple commands that are similar to recall.

             #map goto <room vnum> [dig]
               Takes you to the given room vnum, with the
               dig argument a new room will be created if none exists.

             #map goto <name> <exits> <desc> <area> <note> <terrain>
               Takes you to the given room name, if you provide exits those
               must match.

             #map info [save]
               Gives information about the map and room you are in. If the save
               argument is given the map data is saved to the info[map] variable.

             #map insert <direction> [roomflag]
               Insert a room in the given direction. Most useful for inserting
               void rooms.

             #map jump <x> <y> <z>
               Jump to the given coordinate, which is relative
               to your current room.

             #map landmark <name> <vnum> [description] [size]
               Creates an alias to target the provided room vnum. The
               description is optional and should be brief. The size
               determines from how many rooms away the landmark can be
               seen.

             #map leave
               Makes you leave the map. Useful when entering a maze. You
               can return to your last known room using #map return.

             #map legend <legend> [symbols|reset]
             #map legend <legend> <index> [symbol]
               There are several legends and sub-legends available for
               drawing maps to suit personal preference and character sets.
               Use #map legend all to see the legend as currently defined.
               Use #map legend <legend> <reset> to set the default legend.
               Use #map legend <legend> <character list> to create a custom
               legend. Custom legends are stored in the map file and can be
               saved and loaded using #map write and #map read.

             #map link <direction> <room name> [both]
               Links two rooms. If the both
               argument and a valid direction is given the link is two ways.

             #map list <name> <exits> <desc> <area> <note> <terrain>
               Lists all matching rooms and their distance. The following
               search keywords are supported.

               {distance}    <arg> will list rooms within given distance.
               {roomarea}    <arg> will list rooms with matching area name.
               {roomdesc}    <arg> will list rooms with matching room desc.
               {roomexits}   <arg> will list rooms with identical room exits.
                                   Use * as an exit to ignore non pathdir exits.
               {roomflag}    <arg> will list rooms with matching room flags.
               {roomid}      <arg> will list rooms with identical id name.
               {roomname}    <arg> will list rooms with matching room name.
               {roomnote}    <arg> will list rooms with matching room note.
               {roomterrain} <arg> will list rooms with matching room terrain.
               {variable}    <arg> will save the output to given variable.

             #map map <rows> <cols> <append|overwrite|list|variable> <name>
               Display a drawing of the map of the given height and width.
               All arguments are optional. If {rows} or {cols} are set to {}
               or {0} they will use the scrolling window size as the default.
               If {rows} or {cols} are a negative number this number is
               subtracted from the scrolling window size.

             #map map <rows> <cols> draw <square>
               Display a drawing of the map of the given height and width.
               The square argument exists of 4 numbers formulating the top
               left corner and bottom right corner of a square.

               If you use {append|overwrite} the map is written to the specified
               file name which must be given as the 4th argument.
               If you use {list|variable} the map is saved to the specified
               variable name.

             #map move <direction>
               This does the same as an actual movement command, updating your
               location on the map and creating new rooms. Useful when you are
               following someone and want the map to follow along. You will need
               to create actions using '#map move', for this to work.

             #map offset <row> <col> <row> <col>
               Define the offset of the vtmap as a square. Without an argument
               it defaults to the entire top split region.

             #map read <filename>
               Will load the given map file.

             #map resize <size>
               Resize the map, setting the maximum number of rooms.

             #map return
               Returns you to your last known room after leaving the map
               or loading a map.

             #map roomflag <flags> <get|on|off>

             #map roomflag avoid
               When set, '#map find' will avoid a route leading
               through that room. Useful for locked doors, etc.
             #map roomflag block
               When set the automapper will prevent movement into or through
               the room. Useful for death traps.
             #map roomflag hide
               When set, '#map' will not display the map beyond
               this room. When mapping overlapping areas or areas that aren't
               build consistently you need this flag as well to stop
               auto-linking, unless you use void rooms.
             #map roomflag invis
               When set the room will be colored with the INVIS color.
             #map roomflag leave
               When entering a room with this flag, you will
               automatically leave the map. Useful when set at the entrance
               of an unmappable maze.
             #map roomflag noglobal
               This marks a room as not allowing global
               transportation, like norecall rooms that block recall.
             #map roomflag void
               When set the room becomes a spacing room that can
               be used to connect otherwise overlapping areas. A void room
               should only have two exits. When entering a void room you are
               moved to the connecting room until you enter a non void room.
             #map roomflag static
               When set the room will no longer be autolinked
               when walking around. Useful for mapping mazes.

             #map run <room name> [delay]
               Calculates the shortest path to the destination and walks you
               there. The delay is optional and requires using braces. Besides
               the room name a list of exits can be provided for more precise
               matching.

             #map set <option> <value> [vnum]
               Set a map value for your current room, or given room if a room
               vnum is provided.

             #map sync <filename>
               Similar to #map read except the current map won't be unloaded
               or overwritten.

             #map terrain <name> <symbol> [flag]
               Set the terrain symbol and flag.

             #map terrain <name> <symbol> [DENSE|SPARSE|SCANT]
               Determine symbol density, omit for the default.

             #map terrain <name> <symbol> [NARROW|WIDE|VAST]
               Determine symbol spread range, omit for the default.

             #map terrain <name> <symbol> [FADEIN|FADEOUT]
               Determine symbol spread density, omit for the default.

             #map terrain <name> <symbol> [DOUBLE]
               You're using two characters for the symbol.

             #map travel <direction> <delay>
               Follows the direction until a dead end or an intersection is
               found. Use braces around the direction if you use the delay,
               which will add the given delay between movements.
               Use #path stop to stop a delayed run.

             #map undo
               Will undo your last move. If this created a room or a link
               they will be deleted, otherwise you'll simply move back a
               room. Useful if you walked into a non-existent direction.

             #map uninsert <direction>
               Exact opposite of the insert command.

             #map unlandmark <name>
               Removes a landmark.

             #map unlink <direction> [both]
               Will remove the exit, this isn't two way so you can have the
               properly display no exit rooms and mazes.
               If you use the both argument the exit is removed two-ways.

             #map unterrain <name>
               Removes a terrain.

             #map update [now]
               Sets the vtmap to update within the next 0.1 seconds, or
               instantly with the now argument.

             #map vnum <low> [high]
               Change the room vnum to the given number, if a range is

             MAPPING

             TinTin++ has a powerful automapper that uses a room system similar to
             Diku MUDs which means that odd map layouts and weird exit
             configurations aren't a problem. The mapper provides tools to improve
             the visual map display. For basic path tracking see #help PATH.

             #map create [size]

             This command creates the initial map. The size is 50,000 by default
             and can be changed at any time with the #map resize command. If you
             play a MUD that uses MSDP or GMCP to provide room numbers you'll have
             to increase it to the highest reported room number. Increasing the
             size of the map doesn't decrease performance.

             #map goto <location>

             When you create the map you are not automatically inside the map. By
             default room number (vnum) 1 is created, so you can go to it using
             #map goto 1. Once you are inside the map new rooms are automatically
             created as you move around. Movement commands are defined with the
             #pathdir command. By default n, ne, e, se, s, sw, w, nw, u, d are
             defined.

             #map map <rows> <cols> <append|overwrite|list|variable> <name>

             To see the map you can use #map map. It's annoying to have to
             constantly type #map map however. Instead it's possible to use #split
             to display a vt100 map. To do so execute:

             #split 16 1
             #map flag vtmap on

             The first command sets the top split lines to 16 and the bottom split
             line to 1. If you want a smaller or larger map display you can use a
             different value than 16.

             If you don't need to display diagonal exits and prefer a more compact
             look you can use #map flag AsciiGraphics off. This will enable the
             standard display which uses UTF-8 box drawing characters, results may
             vary depending on the font used.

             If your terminal supports UTF-8 you can also give #map flag unicode on
             a try.

             If you want to display the map in a different location of the screen
             use something like:

             #split 0 1 0 -80
             #map offset 1 81 -4 -1

             This will display the map on the right side of the screen, if the
             width of the screen is wide enough.

             #map undo

             If you accidentally walk into the wall on your MUD the mapper will
             still create a new room. You can easily fix this mistake by using
             #map undo. If you want to move around on the map without moving around
             on the MUD you can use: #map move {direction}. To delete a room
             manually you can use: #map delete {direction}. To create a room
             manually you can use: #map dig {direction}.

             #map write <filename>

             You can save your map using #map write, to load a map you can use
             #map read <filename>. You can return to the room you were in when
             the map was last saved by using #map return. You can use #event to
             automatically read and write the map on session start and end.

             #map set <option> <value>

             You can set the room name using #map set roomname <name>. You either
             have to do this manually or create triggers to set the room name
             automatically. Once the room name is set you can use #map goto with
             the room name to visit it. If there are two rooms with the same name
             #map goto will go to the most nearby room. If you want to always go
             to the same room you should memorize the room number or create a
             landmark.

             #map landmark firstroom 1

             You can further narrow down the matches by providing additional
             arguments, for example:

             #map goto {dark alley} {roomexits} {n;e} {roomarea} {Haddock Ville}

             You can set the room weight using #map set roomweight {value}. The
             weight by default is set to 1.0 and it represents the difficulty of
             traversing the room. If you have a lake as an alternative route, and
             traversing water rooms is 4 times slower than regular rooms, then you
             could set the weight of the lake rooms to 4.0. If the lake is 3 rooms
             wide the total weight is 12. If walking around the lake has a weight
             less than 12 the mapper will go around the lake, if the weight is
             greater than 12 the mapper will take a route through the lake.

             You can set the room symbol using #map set roomsymbol {value}. The
             symbol should be one, two, or three characters, which can be
             colorized. You can for example mark shops with an 'S' and colorize the
             'S' depending on what type of shop it is.

             #map run <location> <delay>

             The run command will have tintin find the shortest path to the given
             location and execute the movement commands to get there. You can
             provide a delay in seconds with floating point precision, for example:

             #map run {dark alley} {0.5}

             This will make you walk towards the nearest dark alley with 0.5 second
             intervals. Typical MUDs accept commands at 0.25 second intervals.

             #map insert {direction} {flag}

             The insert command is useful for adding spacer rooms called void rooms.
             Often rooms overlap, and by adding void rooms you can stretch out
             exits. For example: #map insert north void. You cannot enter void rooms
             once they've been created, so you'll have to use #map info in an
             adjacent room to find the room vnum, then use #map goto {vnum} to
             visit.

             It's also possible to align rooms using void rooms. This is easily
             done using #map insert north void.

             MATH

    Command: #math {variable} {expression}

             Performs math operations and stores the result in a variable.  The math
             follows a C-like precedence, as follows, with the top of the list
             having the highest priority.

             :              14            logical ternary else

             True is any non-zero number, and False is zero.  Parentheses () have
             highest precedence, so inside the () is always evaluated first.

             Strings must be enclosed in " " or { } and in the case of an == or
             != operation a regex is performed with the regular expression in the
             right-hand string. In the case of a <= or >= operation the alphabetic
             order is compared.

             The #if and #switch commands use #math. Several commands accepting
             numeric input allow math operations as well, such as #delay.

             Floating point precision is added by using the decimal . operator or
             using #format with the %f flag character.

    Example: #math {heals} {$mana / 40}
             Assuming there is a variable $mana, divides its value by 40 and stores
             the result in $heals.

    Example: #action {^You receive %0 experience} {updatexp %0}
             #alias updatexp {#math {xpneed} {$xpneed - %0}
             Let's say you have a variable which stores xp needed for your next
             level.  The above will modify that variable after every kill, showing
             the amount still needed.

    Example: #action {%0 tells %1}
               {#if {{%0} == {Bubba} && $afk} {reply I'm away, my friend.}}
             When you are away from keyboard, it will only reply to your friend.

             Strings must be encased in double quotes or braces. The > >= < <=
             operators perform basic string comparisons. The == != operators perform
             regular expressions, with the argument on the left being the string,

             {bla} == {%*a} would evaluate as 1.

             MOUSE

             To enable xterm mouse tracking use #CONFIG MOUSE ON.

             To see mouse events as they happen use #CONFIG MOUSE INFO. This
             information can then be used to create mouse events with the #event
             command and buttons with the #button command.

             Visual buttons and pop-ups can be drawn on the screen with the #draw
             command.

             The input field can be changed and renamed using #screen inputregion,
             which allows creating named events for enter handling.

             Links can be created using the MSLP protocol which will generate link
             specific events when clicked.

             In order to copy/paste, most terminals require that you press the shift
             key during selection.

             MSLP

             MSLP (Mud Server Link Protocol) requires enabling #config mouse on,
             and creating the appropriate LINK events.

             The simplest link can be created by surrounding a keyword with the
             \e[4m and \e[24m tags.

    Example: #substitute {\b{n|e|s|w|u|d}\b} {\e[4m%1\e[24m}

             This would display 'Exits: n, e, w.' as 'Exits: n, e, w.'.

             When clicked this would trigger the PRESSED LINK MOUSE BUTTON ONE
             event of which %4 will hold the link command and %6 holds the
             link name, which in the case of a simple link will be empty.

    Example: #event {PRESSED LINK MOUSE BUTTON ONE} {#send {%4}}

             Keep in mind that if you change PRESSED to DOUBLE-CLICKED the link
             will only work if the text does not scroll in between clicks.

             If you want to create a complex link use an OSC code.

    Example: #sub {\bsmurf\b} {\e]68;1;;say I hate smurfs!\a\e[4m%0\e[24m}

             If you have the LINK event of the previous example set, the %4
             argument will contain 'say I hate smurfs!'.

    Example: #sub {\bgoblin\b} {\e]68;1;SEND;kill goblin\a\e[4m%0\e[24m}

             Notice the previous instance of ;; has been replaced with ;SEND;
             which will name the link. This will generate a named event.

    Example: #event {PRESSED LINK SEND MOUSE BUTTON ONE} {#send {%4}}

             By naming links you can organize things a little bit better instead
             of tunneling everything through the same event.

             Keep in mind that the server is allowed to use \e]68;1;\a as well,
             subsequently various security measures are in place.

             To create secure links, which are filtered out when sent by a server,
             you need to use \e]68;2;\a, and they instead trigger the SECURE LINK
             event.

             To create a link that is not underlined, use \e]4;24m text \e]24m.

    Example: #sub {%* tells %*} {\e]68;2;EXEC;#cursor set tell %1 \a\e[4;24m%0\e[24m}
             #event {PRESSED SECURE LINK EXEC MOUSE BUTTON ONE} {%4}

             This would make you start a reply when clicking on a tell.

             NOP

    Command: #nop {whatever}

             Short for 'no operation', and is ignored by the client.  It is useful
             for commenting in your coms file, any text after the nop and before a
             semicolon or end of line is ignored. You shouldn't put braces { } in it
             though, unless you close them properly.

             A valid alternative for #nop is #0.

    Comment: By using braces you can comment out multiple lines of code in a script
             file.

             For commenting out an entire trigger and especially large sections of
             triggers you would want to use /* text */

    Example: #nop This is the start of my script file.

             PARSE

    Command: #parse {string} {variable} {commands}

             Like the loop statement, parse will loop from start to finish through
             the given string.  The value of the current character is stored in the
             provided variable.

    Example: #parse {hello world} {char} {#show $char}

    Related: break, continue, foreach, list, loop, repeat, return and while.

             PATH

    Command: #path {option} {argument}

             create   Will clear the path and start path mapping.
             delete   Will delete the last move of the path.
             describe Describe the path and current position.
             destroy  Will clear the path and stop path mapping.
             get      Will get either the length or position.
             goto     Go the the start, end, or given position index.
             insert   Add the given argument to the path.
             load     Load the given variable as the new path.
             map      Display the map and the current position.
             move     Move the position forward or backward. If a number is given
                      the position is changed by the given number of steps.
             run      Execute the current path, with an optional floating point
                      delay in seconds as the second argument.
             save     Save the path to a variable. You must specify whether you
                      want to save the path 'forward' or 'backward'.
             start    Start path mapping.
             stop     Stop path mapping, can also abort #path run.
             swap     Switch the forward and backward path.
             unzip    Load the given speedwalk as the new path.
             walk     Take one step forward or backward.
             zip      Turn the path into a speedwalk.

    Example: #path ins {unlock n;open n} {unlock s;open s}

    Related: map, pathdir and speedwalk.

             PATHDIR

    Command: #pathdir {dir} {reversed dir} {coord}

             By default tintin sets the most commonly used movement commands
             meaning you generally don't really have to bother with pathdirs.
             Pathdirs are used by the #path and #map commands.

             The first argument is a direction, the second argument is the reversed
             direction.  The reverse direction of north is south, etc.

             The third argument is a spatial coordinate which is a power of two.
             'n' is 1, 'e' is 2, 's' is 4, 'w' is '8', 'u' is 16, 'd' is 32. The
             exception is for compound directions, whose value should be the sum
             of the values of each cardinal direction it is composed of. For
             example, 'nw' is the sum of 'n' and 'w' which is 1 + 8, so 'nw'
             needs to be given the value of 9. This value is required for the
             #map functionality to work properly.

    Example: #pathdir {ue} {dw} {18}
             #pathdir {dw} {ue} {40}

    Comment: You can remove a pathdir with the #unpathdir command.

             PCRE

             A regular expression, regex or regexp is a sequence of characters that
             defines a search pattern. Since the 1980s, different syntaxes for
             writing regular expressions exist, the two most widely used ones being
             the POSIX syntax and the similar but more advanced Perl standard.
             TinTin++ supports the Perl standard known as PCRE (Perl Compatible
             Regular Expressions).

             Regular expressions are an integral part of TinTin++, but keep in mind
             that tintin doesn't allow you to use regular expressions directly,
             instead it uses a simpler intermediate syntax that still allows more
             complex expressions when needed.

             Commands that utilize regular expressions are: action, alias, elseif,
             gag, grep, highlight, if, kill, local, math, prompt, regexp, replace,
             substitute, switch, variable and while. Several other commands use
             regular expressions in minor ways. Fortunately the basics are very
             easy to learn.

             TinTin++ Regular Expression

             The following support is available for regular expressions.

           ^ match start of line.
           $ match of end of line.
           \ escape one character.

      %1-%99 match of any text, stored in the corresponding index.
          %0 should be avoided in the regex, contains all matched text.
         { } embed a perl compatible regular expression, matches are stored.
       %!{ } embed a perl compatible regular expression, matches are not stored.

             [ ] . + | ( ) ? * are treated as normal text unless used within braces.
             Keep in mind that { } is replaced with ( ) automatically unless %!{ }
             is used.

    TinTin++ Description                                      POSIX
          %a Match zero or more characters including newlines ([^\0]*?)
          %A Match zero or more newlines                      ([\n]*?)
          %c Match zero or more ansi color codes              ((?:\e\[[0-9;]*m)*?)
          %d Match zero or more digits                        ([0-9]*?)
          %D Match zero or more non-digits                    ([^0-9]*?)
          %i Matches become case insensitive                  (?i)
          %I Matches become case sensitive (default)          (?-i)
          %s Match zero or more spaces                        ([\r\n\t ]*?)
          %S Match zero or more non-spaces                    ([^\r\n\t ]*?)
          %w Match zero or more word characters               ([A-Za-z0-9_]*?)
          %W Match zero or more non-word characters           ([^A-Za-z0-9_]*?)
          %? Match zero or one character                      (.??)
          %. Match one character                              (.)
          %+ Match one or more characters                     (.+?)
          %* Match zero or more characters excluding newlines (.*?)

             Ranges

             If you want to match 1 digit use %+1d, if you want to match between 3
             and 5 spaces use %+3..5s, if you want to match 1 or more word
             characters use %+1..w, etc.

             Variables

             If you use %1 in an action to perform a match the matched string is
             stored in the %1 variable which can be used in the action body.

    Example: #act {%1 says 'Tickle me'} {tickle %1}

             If you use %2 the match is stored in %2, etc. If you use an unnumbered
             match like %* or %S the match is stored at the last used index
             incremented by one.

    Example: #act {%3 says '%*'} {#if {"%4" == "Tickle me"} {tickle %3}}

             The maximum variable index is 99. If you begin an action with %* the
             match is stored in %1. You should never use %0 in the trigger part of
             an action, when used in the body of an action %0 contains all the parts
             of the string that were matched.

             To prevent a match from being stored use %!*, %!w, etc.

             Perl Compatible Regular Expressions

             You can embed a PCRE (Perl Compatible Regular Expression) using curley
             braces { }, these braces are replaced with parentheses ( ) unless you
             use %!{ }.

             Or

             You can separate alternatives within a PCRE using the | character.

    Example: #act {%* raises {his|her|its} eyebrows.} {say 42..}

             Brackets

             You can group alternatives and ranges within a PCRE using brackets.

    Example: #act {%* says 'Who is number {[1-9]}?} {say $number[%2] is number %2}

             The example only triggers if someone provides a number between 1 and
             9. Any other character will cause the action to not trigger.

    Example: #act {%* says 'Set password to {[^0-9]*}$} {say The password must
               contain at least one number, not for security reasons, but just to
               annoy you.} {4}

             When the ^ character is used within brackets it creates an inverse
             search, [^0-9] matches every character except for a number between 0
             and 9.

             Quantification

             A quantifier placed after a match specifies how often the match is
             allowed to occur.

           ? repeat zero or one time.
           * repeat zero or multiple times.
           + repeat once or multiple times.
         {n} repeat exactly n times, n must be a number.
        {n,} repeat at least n times, n must be a number.
       {n,o} repeat between n and o times, n and o must be a number.

    Example: #act {%* says 'Who is number {[1-9][0-9]{0,2}}?} {Say $number[%2] is
               number %2}

             The example only triggers if someone provides a number between 1 and
             999.

             Parantheses

             TinTin Regular Expressions automatically add parenthesis, for example
             %* translates to (.*?) in PCRE unless the %* is found at the start or
             end of the line, in which cases it translates to (.*). Paranthesis in
             PCRE causes a change in execution priority similar to mathematical
             expressions, but parentheses also causes the match to be stored to a
             variable.

             When nesting multiple sets of parentheses each nest is assigned its
             numerical variable in order of appearance.

    Example: #act {%* chats '{Mu(ha)+}'} {chat %2ha!}

             If someone chats Muha you will chat Muhaha! If someone chats Muhaha
             you will chat Muhahaha!

             Lazy vs Greedy

             By default regex matches are greedy, meaning {.*} will capture as much
             text as possible.

    Example: #regex {bli bla blo} {^{.*} {.*}$} {#show Arg1=(&1) Arg2=(&2)}

             This will display: Arg1=(bli bla) Arg2=(blo)

             By appending a ? behind a regex it becomes lazy, meaning {.*?} will
             capture as little text as possible.

    Example: #regex {bli bla blo} {^{.*?} {.*?}$} {#show Arg1=(&1) Arg2=(&2)}

             This will display: Arg1=(bli) Arg2=(bla blo).

             Escape Codes

             PCRE support the following escape codes.

        PCRE Description                                    POSIX
          \A Match start of string                          ^
          \b Match word boundaries                          (^|\r|\n|\t| |$)
          \B Match non-word boundaries                      [^\r\n\t ]
          \c Insert control character                       \c
          \d Match digits                                   [0-9]
          \D Match non-digits                               [^0-9]
          \e Insert escape character                        \e
          \f Insert form feed character                     \f
          \n Insert line feed character                     \n
          \r Insert carriage return character               \r
          \s Match spaces                                   [\r\n\t ]
          \S Match non-spaces                               [^\r\n\t ]
          \t Insert tab character                           \t
          \w Match letters, numbers, and underscores        [A-Za-z0-9_]
          \W Match non-letters, numbers, and underscores    [^A-Za-z0-9_]
          \x Insert hex character                           \x
          \Z Match end of string                            $
          \\ Match a backslash                              \\

             \s matches one space, \s+ matches one or multiple spaces, the use
             of {\s+} is required for this sequence to work in tintin, \s by
             itself will work outside of a set of braces.

             Use \% to forcibly match a literal % character.

             Color triggers

             To make matching easier text triggers (Actions, Gags, Highlights,
             Prompts, and Substitutes) have their color codes stripped. If you
             want to create a color trigger you must start the triggers with a ~
             (tilde). To make escape codes visible use #config {convert meta} on.

    Example: #action {~\e[1;37m%1} {#var roomname %1}

             If the room name is the only line on the server in bright white
             white color trigger will save the roomname.

             This covers the basics. PCRE has more options, most of which are
             somewhat obscure, so you'll have to read a PCRE manual for additional
             information.

             PORT

    Command: #port {option} {argument}

             #port {init} {name} {port} {file}
               Initilize a port session.

             #port {call} {address} {port}
               Connect to a remote socket.

             #port {color} {color names}
               Set the default color of port messages.

             #port {dnd}
               Do Not Disturb. Decline new connections

             #port {group} {name} {group}
               Assign a socket group.

             #port {ignore} {name}
               Ignore a socket

             #port {info}
               Display information about the port session.

             #port {name} {name}
               Change socket name.

             #port {prefix} {text}
               Set prefix before each message.

             #port {send} {name|all} {text}
               Send data to socket

             #port {uninitialize}
               Uninitialize the port session.

             #port {who}
               Show all connections

             #port {zap} {name}
               Close a connection

             The port command is very similar to chat except that it creates a
             new session dedicated to receiving socket connections at the given
             port number without built-in support for a communication protocol.

             You can init with 0 as the port number to create a dummy session.

             PROMPT

    Command: #prompt {text} {new text} {row #} {col #}

             Prompt is a feature for split window mode, which will capture a line
             received from the server and display it on the status bar of your
             split screen terminal. You would define <text> and <new text> the
             same way as you would with #substitute.

             The row number is optional and useful if you use a non standard split
             mode. A positive row number draws #row lines from the top while a
             negative number draws #row lines from the bottom. Without an argument
             #prompt will write to the default split line, which is one row above
             the input line, typically at row -2.

             If the row number is set to 0, #prompt will behave like #substitute.
             This is useful to let tintin know that a prompt was received so you
             can use #config packet_patch with minimal interference.

             The col number is optional and can be used to set the column index.
             A positive col number draws the given number of columns from the left,
             while a negative col number draws from the right. If you leave the
             col number empty tintin will clear the row before printing at the
             start of the row.

             The #show command takes a row and col argument as well so it's also
             possible to place text on your split lines using #show.

    Example: #prompt {[%*] %* (%*) > } {[%1] %2 (%3)}
    Example: #prompt {[%*] %* (%*) > } {} {-2}
             If the <new text> argument is left empty the original text is used,
             including colors. Use {\} for a blank line.

    Comment: See #help split for more information on split mode.

    Comment: See #help substitute for more information on text
             substitutions.

    Comment: You can remove a prompt with the #unprompt command.

    Related: action, gag, highlight and substitute.

             READ

    Command: #read {filename}

             Reads a commands file into memory.  The commands are merged with the
             currently loaded commands.  Duplicate commands are overwritten.

             If you uses braces you can use several lines for each command.  You
             must match every { with a } for the read command to work.

             You can comment out triggers using /* text */

    Related: log, scan, textin and write.

             REGEXP

    Command: #regexp {string} {expression} {true} {false}

             Compares the string to the given regular expression.

             The expression can contain escapes, and if you want to match a literal
             \ character you'll have to use \\ to match a single backslash.

             Variables are stored in &1 to &99 with &0 holding the matched
             substring.

             The #regex command is not a proper statement like #if, when using
             #return or #break in the {true} argument it won't terminate any loop
             the #regex command is nested within.

           ^ force match of start of line.
           $ force match of end of line.
           \ escape one character.
      %1-%99 lazy match of any text, available at %1-%99.
          %0 should be avoided in triggers, and if left alone lists all matches.
         { } embed a raw regular expression, matches are stored to %1-%99.
       %!{ } embed a raw regular expression, matches are not stored.

             [ ] . + | ( ) ? * are treated as normal text unlessed used within
             braces. Keep in mind that { } is replaced with ( ) automatically
             unless %!{ } is used.

             Of the following the (lazy) match is available at %1-%99 + 1

          %a match zero or more characters including newlines.
          %A match zero or more newlines.
          %c match zero or more ansi color codes.
          %d match zero or more digits.
          %D match zero or more non digits.
          %s match zero or more spaces.
          %S match zero or more non spaces.
          %w match zero or more word characters.
          %W match zero or more non word characters.

          Experimental (subject to change) matches are:

          %p match zero or more printable characters.
          %P match zero or more non printable characters.
          %u match zero or more unicode characters.
          %U match zero or more non unicode characters.

          If you want to match 1 digit use %+1d, if you want to match between 3
          and 5 spaces use %+3..5s, if you want to match 0 or more word
          characters use %+0..w, etc.

          %+ match one or more characters.
          %? match zero or one character.
          %. match one character.
          %* match zero or more characters.

          %i matching becomes case insensitive.
          %I matching becomes case sensitive (default).

             The match is automatically stored to a value between %1 and %99
             starting at %1 and incrementing by 1 for every regex. If you use
             %15 as a regular expression, the next unnumbered regular expression
             would be %16. To prevent a match from being stored use %!*, %!w, etc.

    Example: #regexp {bli bla blo} {bli {.*} blo} {#show &1}

    Comment: Like an alias or function #regex has its own scope.

    Related: pcre and replace.

             REPEAT

    Command: #[number] {commands} {..}

            Sometimes you want to repeat the same command multiple times. This is
            the easiest way to accomplish that.

    Example: #10 {buy bread}
    Example: #2 {buy bread} {buy apple}

    Related: mathematics and statements.

             REPLACE

    Command: #replace {variable} {oldtext} {newtext}

             Searches the given variable, replacing each occurrence of 'oldtext'
             with 'newtext'. The 'oldtext' argument is a regular expression.

             Variables are stored in &1 to &99 with &0 holding the entire matched
             substring.

    Example: #function rnd #math result 1d9;#replace test {%.} {@rnd{}}

    Related: cat, format, function, local, math, script and variable.

             RETURN

    Command: #return {text}

             This command can be used to break out of a command string being
             executed.

             If used inside a #function you can use #return with an argument to both
             break out of the function and set the result variable.

    Related: break, continue, foreach, list, loop, parse, repeat and while.

             RUN

    Command: #run {name} {shell command} {file}

             The run command works much like the system command except that it
             runs the command in a pseudo terminal. The run command also creates
             a session that treats the given shell command as a server. This
             allows you to run ssh, as well as any other shell application, with
             full tintin scripting capabilities. If a file name is given the file
             is loaded prior to execution.

    Example: #run {somewhere} {ssh someone@somewhere.com}
    Example: #run {something} {tail -f chats.log}

             SCAN

    Command: #scan {abort|csv|tsv|txt} {filename}

             The scan command is a file reading utility.

             #scan {abort}
               This command must be called from with a SCAN event and will
               abort the scan if one is in progress.

             #scan {csv} <filename>
               The scan csv command reads in a comma separated value file
               without printing the content to the screen. Instead it triggers one
               of two events.

               The SCAN CSV HEADER event is triggered on the first line of the csv
               file. The SCAN CSV LINE event is triggered on the second and each
               subsequent line of the csv file. The %0 argument contains the entire
               line, with  %1 containing the first value, %2 the second value, etc,
               all the way up to %99.

               Values containing spaces must be surrounded with quotes, keep in mind
               newlines within quotes are not supported. Use two quotes to print one
               literal quote character.

             #scan {dir} <filename> <variable>

               The scan dir command will read the given filename or directory and
               store any gathered information into the provided variable.

             #scan {json} <filename> <variable>
               The scan json command will read the given filename and store the data
               in the provided tintin variable.

             #scan {tsv} <filename>

               The scan tsv <filename> command reads in a tab separated value file
               without printing the content to the screen. Instead it triggers the
               SCAN TSV HEADER event for the first line and SCAN TSV LINE for all
               subsequent lines.

             #scan {file} <filename> {commands}

               The scan file command reads the given files and executes the
               commands argument. &0 contains the raw content of the file and
               &1 contains the plain content. &2 contains the raw byte size of the
               file and &3 the plain byte size. &5 contains the line count.

             #scan {txt} <filename>

               The scan txt <filename> command reads in a file and sends its content
               to the screen as if it was sent by a server. After using scan you can
               use page-up and down to view the file.

               This command is useful to convert ansi color files to html or viewing
               raw log files.

               Actions, highlights, and substitutions will trigger as normal, and it
               is possible to create an action to execute #scan abort to prematurely
               stop the scan.

             SCREEN READER

    Command: #config {SCREEN READER} {ON|OFF}

             Screen reader mode is enabled by using #config screen on. One purpose
             of the screen reader mode is to report to servers that a screen reader
             is being used by utilizing the MTTS standard. The MTTS specification
             is available at:

             https://tintin.mudhalla.net/protocols/mtts

             With the screen reader mode enabled TinTin++ will try to remove or
             alter visual elements where possible.

             SCRIPT

    Command: #script {variable} {shell command}

             The script command works much like the system command except that it
             treats the generated echos as commands if no variable is provided.

             This is useful for running php, perl, ruby, and python scripts. You
             can run these scripts either from file or from within tintin if the
             scripting language allows this.

             If you provide a variable the output of the script is stored as a list.

    Example: #script {ruby -e 'print "#show hello world"'}
    Example: #script {python -c 'print "#show hello world"'}
    Example: #script {php -r 'echo "#show hello world"'}
    Example: #script {path} {pwd};#show The path is $path[1].

             SESSION

    Command: #session {name} {host} {port} {file}

             Starts a telnet session with the given name, host, port, and optional
             file name. The name can be anything you want, except the name of an
             already existing session, a number, or the keywords '+' and '-'.

             If a file name is given the file is only read if the session
             succesfully connects.

             Without an argument #session shows the currently defined sessions.

             If you have more than one session, you can use the following commands:

             #session {-}        Switch to the previous session.
             #session {+}        Switch to the next session.
             #session {<number>} Switch to the given session. Session 0 is the
                                 startup session, +1 the first, +2 the second, and
                                 -1 is the last session. Sessions are (currently)
                                 sorted in order of creation.
             #gts                Switch to the startup session. The name gts stands
                                 for global tintin session.
             #ats                Switch to the active session. The name ats stands
                                 for active tintin session.
                                 not necessarily the calling session.
             #{name}             Activates to the session with the given name.
             #{name} {command}:  Executes a command with the given session without
                                 changing the active session.
             @<name>{text}:      Parse text in the given session, substituting the
                                 variables and functions, and print the result in
                                 the current active session.

             The startup session is named 'gts' and can be used for relog scripts.
             Do keep in mind that tickers do not work in the startup session.

    Example: #event {SESSION DISCONNECTED} {#gts #delay 10 #ses %0 tintin.net 4321}

             SESSIONNAME

    Syntax:  #[sessionname] {commands}

             You can create multiple sessions with the #session command. By default
             only one session is active, meaning commands you input are executed in
             the active session. While all sessions receive output, only output sent
             to the active session is displayed.

             When you create a session with the #session command you must specify a
             session name, the session name, prepended with a hashtag, can be used
             to activate the session when used without an argument. If an argument
             is given it will be executed by that session as a command, the session
             will not be activated.

    Example: #ses one tintin.net 23;#ses two tintin.net 23;#one;#two grin

             This will create two sessions, the session that was created last (two
             in this case) will be automatically activated upon creation. Using
             #one, session one is activated. Using #two grin, the grin social will
             be executed by session two, session one will remain the active session.

             If you send a variable to another session it will be substituted before
             being passed. If you want the variable value of the receiving session
             to be used you need to use '$${variable}' to properly escape it.

    Syntax:  @[sessionname]{substitution}

             If you want to pull the value of a variable from another session you
             can do so in a similar way as you would use a #function call. Using
             #showme {@two{$test}} in session one would print the value of $test,
             as defined by session two.

             SHOWME

    Command: #show {string} {row} {col}

             Display the string to the terminal, do not send to the server.  Useful
             for status, warnings, etc.  The {row} and col number are optional and
             work the same way as the row number of the #prompt trigger.

             Actions can be triggered by the show command. If you want to avoid
             this from happening use: #line ignore #show {<string>}.

    Example: #tick {TICK} {#delay 50 #show 10 SECONDS TO TICK!!!} {60}

    Comment: The #prompt helpfile contains more information on using the
             option {row} and {col} arguments.

             SNOOP

    Command: #snoop {session name} {on|off|scroll}

             If there are multiple sessions active, this command allows you to
             monitor what is going on in the sessions that are not currently active.
             The line of text from other sessions will be prefixed by the session's
             name.

             You can toggle off snoop mode by executing #snoop a second time.

             By using the scroll argument you will snoop the session's scroll
             region which will overwrite the display of whichever session is active.
             You can change the size and location of a session's scroll region by
             using the #split and #screen scrollregion commands.

             SPEEDWALK

             SPEEDWALK V1

             Speedwalking allows you to enter multiple directions without using
             semicolons. Directions should be prefixed with a number and will be
             executed the given number of times.

             You can enable speedwalking with #CONFIG {SPEEDWALK} {ON}.

    Example: Without speedwalk, you have to type:
             s;s;w;w;w;w;w;s;s;s;w;w;w;n;n;w
             With speedwalk, you only have to type:
             2s5w3s3w2nw

             SPEEDWALK V2

             Modern MUDs have increasingly adopted the use of diagonal exits, like
             ne, nw, sw, and se. To make accomodations for this the #map and #path
             command no longer interpret nesw as a speedwalk and require this to
             be written as 1n1e1s1w, which then allows 2ne2e to execute ne;ne;e;e.

             Speedwalks entered on the input line continue to use the v1 system.

             The #path load command is backward compatible with v1 speedwalks and
             to load v2 speedwalks the #path unzip command needs to be used, unless
             the speedwalk was saved using #path save in which case a v2 compatible
             format is used that can also contain timing data.

    Example: #path unzip 3n1e2nw
    Example: #map move 3ne1d

             SPLIT

    Command: #split {top bar} {bottom bar} {left bar} {right bar} {input bar}

             This option requires for your terminal to support VT100 emulation.

             #split allows the creation of a top status bar, a left and right status
             bar, a scrolling region, a bottom status bar, and an input line.

             ╭────────────────────────────────╮
             │            top bar             │
             ├──────┬──────────────────┬──────┤
             │ left │    scrolling     │ right│
             │ bar  │     region       │  bar │
             ├──────┴──────────────────┴──────┤
             │           bottom bar           │
             ├────────────────────────────────┤
             │           input bar            │
             ╰────────────────────────────────╯

             By default the bottom status bar is filled with dashes --- and
             subsequently it is also known as the split line. The scrolling
             region is also known as the main screen and this is where all
             incoming text is displayed by default.

             If you use #split without an argument it will set the height of the
             top status bar to 0 lines and the bottom status bar to 1 line.

             If you use #split with one argument it will set the height of the top
             status bar to the given number of lines and the bottom status bar will
             be set to 1 line.

             If you use two arguments the first argument is the height of the top
             status bar and the second argument the height of the bottom status bar.

             The third and fourth argument are optional and default to 0.

             The fifth argument is optional and sets the size of the input bar, it
             defaults to 1.

             It is possible to use negative arguments in which case the bar width
             defines the minimum width of the scrolling region.

    Example: #split 0 0
             This will create a split screen with just a scrolling region and an
             input line. Great for the minimalist.

    Example: #split 1 1 0 -80
             This will create a split screen with a single line top and bottom
             bar. The left bar has a width of 0 while the right bar will be of
             variable width. If for example the screen is 100 columns wide, 80
             columns will be used for the scrolling region, leaving a right bar
             with a width of 20 columns.

             To avoid displaying problems it's suggesed to use #prompt to capture
             the prompt sent by the MUD.

    Comment: You can display text on the split line(s) with the #prompt and
             #show {line} {row} commands.

    Comment: You can remove split mode with the #unsplit command.

             SSL

    Command: #ssl {name} {host} {port} {file}

             Starts a secure socket telnet session with the given name, host, port,
             and optional file name.

             STATEMENTS

             TinTin++ knows the following statements.

             #break
             #case {value} {true}
             #continue
             #default {commands}

             SUBSTITUTE

    Command: #substitute {text} {new text} {priority}

             Allows you to replace text from the server with the new text.

             The %1-%99 variables can be used to capture text and use it as part of
             the new output.

             Color codes can be used to color the new text, to restore the color to
             that of the original line the <900> color code can be used.

             If only one argument is given, all active substitutions that match the
             argument are displayed.  Wildcards can be used, see '#help regex' for
             additional information on that subject.

             If no argument is given, all subs are displayed.

    Example: #sub {Zoe} {ZOE}
             Any instance of Zoe will be replaced with ZOE.

    Example: #sub {~\e[0;34m} {\e[1;34m}
             Replace generic dark blue color codes with bright blue ones.

    Example: #sub {%1massacres%2} {<018>%1<118>MASSACRES<018>%2}
             Replace a line containing 'massacres' with 'MASSACRES' in red.

             SUBSTITUTIONS

              TinTin++ will perform various types of substitions as detailed below.

              Variables

    $ & * @   All variable and function names must begin with an alphabetic
              character, followed by any combination of alphanumeric characters and
              underscores.

    $         The dollar sign is used to retrieve the value of a variable.

    &         The ampersand sign is used to retrieve the index of a variable.

    *         The astrix sign is used to retrieve the name of a variable.

    @         The at sign is used for functions.

    [ ]       Brackets are used for nested variables which function as an
              associative array. Associative arrays are also known as tables and
              maps. Regex can be used within brackets to match multiple variables.

    + -       The plus and minus signs are used to access variables by their index,
              with the first variable having index +1, and the last variable
              having index -1. Variables are ordered alphanumerically.

              All variables and functions can be escaped by doubling the sign,
              like $$variable_name or @@function_name. To escape a variable
              twice use $$$var_name. One escape is removed each time tintin
              needs to substitute a variable or function.

              Arguments

    %0 - %99  The percent sign followed by a number is used for arguments by the
              following triggers:

              alias, action, button, event, function, prompt, and substitute.

    &0 - &99  The ampersand sign followed by a number is used for arguments in the
              regex and replace commands.

              All trigger and command arguments can be escaped by doubling the
              sign like %%1 or &&1. One escape is removed each time tintin
              substitutes trigger or command arguments. To escape three times
              triple the sign like %%%1, etc.

              Colors

    <000>     Three alphanumeric characters encapsulated by the less- and greater-
              than signs are used for 4 and 8 bit color codes.

    <0000>    Either a B (background) or F (foreground) followed by three
              hexadecimal characters encapsulated by < > signs are used for 12
              bit color codes. Requires truecolor capable terminal.

    <0000000> Either a B (background) or F (foreground) followed by six
              hexadecimal characters encapsulated by < > signs are used for 24
              bit color codes. Requires truecolor capable terminal.

              More information is available at #help color.

              Escapes

    \         The back slash is used to escape a character. All available options
              are listed at #help escape. Escapes are typically escaped when text
              leaves the client, by being sent to a server, the shell, being
              displayed on the screen, or being processed as part of a regex.
              Escapes try to mimic escapes in PCRE when possible.

    Related: characters, colors, escape_codes and pcre.

             SUSPEND

    Command: #cursor suspend

             Temporarily suspends tintin and returns you to your shell.  To
             return to tintin, type 'fg' at the shell prompt.

             While suspended your tintin sessions will freeze. To keep a
             suspended session running use the #daemon command.

    Related: sessionname

             SWITCH

    Command: #switch {conditional} {arguments}

             The switch command works similar to the switch statement in other
             languages. When the 'switch' command is encountered its body is parsed
             and each 'case' command found will be compared to the conditional
             argument of the switch and executed if there is a match.

             When comparing strings both the switch and case arguments must be
             enclosed in quote characters.

             If the 'default' command is found and no 'case' statement has been
             matched the default command's argument is executed.

    Example: #switch {1d4} {#case 1 cackle;#case 2 smile;#default giggle}

             SYSTEM

    Command: #system {command}

             Executes the command specified as a shell command.

    Related: detach, script and run.

             TAB

    Command: #tab {word}

             Adds a word to the tab completion list, alphabetically sorted.

             If no tabs are defined tintin will use the scrollback buffer for auto
             tab completion.

             Tabbing behavior can be modified with the #cursor tab command which
             by default is bound to the tab key.

    Example: #macro \t #cursor tab list scrollback caseless forward

    Comment: You can remove a tab with the #untab command.

    Related: alias, cursor, history, keypad, macro and speedwalk.

             TEXTIN

    Command: #textin {filename} {delay}

             Textin allows the user to read in a file, and send its contents
             directly to the server.  Useful for doing online creation, or message
             writing.

             The delay is in seconds and takes a floating point number which is
             cumulatively applied to each outgoing line.

    Related: scan and send.

             TICKER

    Command: #ticker {name} {commands} {interval in seconds}

             Executes given command every # of seconds. Floating point precision
             for the interval is allowed. A ticker cannot fire more often than
             10 times per second.

    Comment: Tickers don't work in the startup session.

    Comment: You can remove a ticker with the #unticker command.

    Related: delay and event.

             TIME

    Command: #format {variable} {%t} {argument}

             The %t format specifier of the #format command allows printing dates
             using the strftime() format specifiers. By default the time stamp used
             is the current time, if you want to print a past or future date use:

    Command: #format {variable} {%t} {{argument} {epoch time}}

             The current epoch time value is obtained using #format {time} {%T}.

             When using %t the argument should contain strftime format specifiers.
             Below are some common specifiers, see man strftime for the full list.

             %a  Abbreviated name of the day of the week (mon ... sun).
             %A  Full name of the day of the week. (Monday ... Sunday)
             %b  Abbreviated name of the month (Jan ... Dec)
             %B  Full name of the month. (January ... December)
             %C  2 digit numeric century. (19 ... 20)
             %d  2 digit numeric day of the month (01 ... 31)
             %H  2 digit numeric 24-hour clock hour. (00 ... 23)
             %I  2 digit numeric 12-hour clock hour. (01 ... 12)
             %j  3 digit numeric day of the year (001 ... 366)
             %m  2 digit numeric month of the year (01 ... 12)
             %M  2 digit numeric minute of the hour (00 ... 59)
             %p  Abbreviated 12 hour clock period (AM ... PM)
             %P  Abbreviated 12 hour clock period (am ... pm)

             %u  1 digit numeric day of the week (1 ... 7)
             %U  2 digit numeric Sunday week of the year (00 ... 53
             %w  1 digit numeric day of the week (0 ... 6)
             %W  2 digit numeric Monday week of the year (00 ... 53
             %y  2 digit numeric year. (70 ... 38)

             TRIGGERS

             All available triggers in TinTin++ are displayed when you use the #info
             command without an argument. All of them are written to file when you
             use the #write command, except commands, histories, and paths.

             Triggers can be disabled with the #ignore command. The #message
             command can be used to disable messages generated or related to the
             corresponding trigger, though this is generally not needed.

             The #debug command will generate useful debugging information for the
             corresponding trigger when enabled. The #info command can be used on
             triggers to generate additional information that might be of use.

    Example: #info event on

             When #info event is set to on you will see when most events are raised.
             Since this can get rather spammy some of the events won't generate
             messages, unless you have an event in the same category set already.

             Text triggers

             When a block of text arrives from the host it is split into individual
             lines, and all action, prompt, gag, substitute, and highlight triggers
             are checked for each line. Only one action can trigger per line, while
             the other triggers can trigger multiple times.

             Packet fragmentation

             MUDs that send long blurbs of text, don't have MCCP support, have a bad
             connection, or a combination of all three, will deliver broken packets.
             This can cause triggers to not fire, as well as displaying problems if
             #split is enabled.

             To mitigate this you can use #config packet_patch 0.5.

             TinTin++ will automatically enable packet patching if the IAC GA or IAC
             EOR telnet sequences are used to mark the end of the prompt. A MUD can
             negotiate the EOR option: https://tintin.mudhalla.net/protocols/eor

             In addition #prompt can be used to make packet patching less noticable.

             Color triggers

             By default most color, control, and vt100 codes are stripped from
             incoming text before being ran through the trigger engine. To create
             a trigger that runs on the unstripped text, the regular expression in
             the trigger should start with a ~.

             To view control codes you can use #config convert_meta on which will
             translate both input and output codes to PCRE escape sequences.

             Multi-line triggers

             If an action or substitution contains the \n sequence it will be
             turned into a multi-line trigger. A multi-line trigger is executed on
             incoming blocks of text from the MUD, and they will not trigger if the
             regular expression spans more than one block. You can visualize
             incoming blocks by using the following event:

             #event {RECEIVED OUTPUT} {#echo <058>%+80h BLOCK}

             Since the %* expression does not capture the \n sequence it is required
             to use %a to capture multiple lines. To capture the start of the block
             use \A and for the end use \Z. You can use ^ and $ to capture the
             start and end of a line.

             Multi-line triggers trigger before regular triggers. Multiple
             multi-line actions can trigger per block, and each multi-line action
             can trigger multiple times per block. Packet fragmentation is not
             currently handled.

             Multi-line triggers are experimental and subject to change.

             Input triggers

             The alias, history and pathdir triggers are checked for each line of
             input. The macro and tab triggers are checked for key presses.

             Time triggers

             The delay, path, and ticker triggers will execute at a set timed
             interval.

             Substitution triggers

             The function and variable triggers will generally execute right
             before the final processing of a line of text.

             Mouse triggers

             The button trigger is checked for each mouse input. #config mouse
             must be set to on to enable mouse tracking.

             Event triggers

             Events can be used for a wide variety of pre-defined triggers.

    Related: pcre, substitutions and escape_codes.

             VARIABLE

    Command: #variable {variable name} {text to fill variable}

             Variables differ from the %0-99 arguments in the fact that you can
             specify a full word as a variable, and they stay in memory for the
             full session unless they are changed.  They can be saved in the
             coms file, and can be set to different values if you have two or
             more sessions running at the same time.  Variables are global for
             each session and can be accessed by adding a $ before the variable
             name.

    Example: #alias {target} {#var target %0}
             #alias {x}      {kick $target}

             The name of a variable must exist of only letters, numbers and
             underscores in order to be substituted.  If you do not meet these
             requirements do not panic, simply encapsulate the variable in braces:

    Example: #variable {cool website} {https://tintin.mudhalla.net}
             #chat I was on ${cool website} yesterday!.

             Variables can be escaped by adding additional $ signs.

    Example: #var test 42;#showme $$test

             Variables can be nested using brackets:

    Example: #var hp[self] 34;#var hp[target] 46

             You can see the first nest of a variable using $variable[+1] and the
             last nest using $variable[-1]. Using $variable[-2] will report the
             second last variable, and so on. To show all indices use *variable[].
             To show all values use $variable[]. To show all values from index 2
             through 4 use $variable[+2..4].

             Nested variables are also known as tables, table generally being used
             to refer to several variables nested within one specific variable.

             It's possible to use regular expressions.

    Example: #show {Targets starting with the letter A: $targets[A%*]

             To disable using regular expressions start the match with '='.

    Example: #show {A target literally defined as A%*: $targets[=A%*]

             To see the internal index of a variable use &<variable name>. To see
             the size of a table you would use: &targets[] or &targets[%*]. A non
             existent nested variable will report itself as 0.

    Example: #show {Number of targets starting with A: &targets[A%*]

             In some scripts you need to know the name of a nested variable. This
             is also known as the key, and you can get it using *variable. For
             example *target[+1]. To get the first variable's name use *{+1}.

             It's also possible to declare a table using brace notation. Using
             #var hp[self] 34 is the equivalent of #var {hp} {{self}{34}}. This
             also allows merging tables. #var hp[self] 34;#var hp[target] 46 is
             the equivalent of #var {hp} {{self}{34} {target}{46}} as well as
             #var {hp} {{self}{34}} {{target}{46}} or if you want to get creative
             the equivalent of #var hp[self] 34;#var {hp} {$hp} {{target}{46}}.

    Comment: You can remove a variable with the #unvariable command.

             WHILE

    Command: #while {conditional} {commands}

             This command works similar to a 'while' statement in other languages.

             When a 'while' command is encourated, the conditional is evaluated,
             and if TRUE (any non-zero result) the commands are executed. The
             'while' loop will be repeated indefinitely until the conditional is
             FALSE or the #BREAK or #RETURN commands are found.

             The 'while' statement is only evaluated if it is read, so you must
             nest it inside a trigger, like an alias or action.

             The conditional is evaluated exactly the same as in the 'math' command.

    Example: #math cnt 0;#while {$cnt < 20} {#math cnt $cnt + 1;say $cnt}

    Comment: See '#help math', for more information.

             WRITE

    Command: #write {<filename>} {[FORCE]}

             Writes all current actions, aliases, subs, highlights, and variables
             to a command file, specified by filename.

             By default you cannot write to .map files to prevent accidentally
             overwriting a map file. Use the FORCE argument to ignore this
             protection.

    Related: log, read, scan and textin.

             ZAP

    Command: #zap {[session]}

             Kill your current session.  If there is no current session, it will
             cause the program to terminate. If you provide an argument it'll zap
             the given session instead.
