* Regular expression matching
|
|
(Testing command; Alpha)
|
|
Creating a beta-testing command that matches any line starting with punctuation.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes we want to let testers of a game insert their own comments during a transcript, without those comments wasting turns of the game or producing lengthy or inappropriate parser errors. Many testers have a habit of prefacing comments with a punctuation mark, so let's say that we'd like to catch any command that starts with any punctuation at all:
|
|
|
|
{*} "Alpha"
|
|
|
|
When play begins:
|
|
say "Hi, Larry! Thanks for testing my game!!"
|
|
|
|
Unimplemented Room is a room. "Room description goes here..."
|
|
|
|
The scary troll is a man in Unimplemented Room.
|
|
|
|
After reading a command (this is the ignore beta-comments rule):
|
|
if the player's command matches the regular expression "^\p":
|
|
say "(Noted.)";
|
|
reject the player's command.
|
|
|
|
Test me with "x me / x troll / !this game is a bit dull so far / kiss troll / ? does this troll do anything? / :yawn". |
