list()

list(<option>[, <type>])
list(<list>, <eval>[, <delimiter>][, <header>][, <target>])

This is the function-equivalent of the @list command, and lists some useful information about the MUSH. <option> can be one of:

motd : Returns the current @motd
wizmotd : Returns the current @motd/wizard. Wiz/Roy only.
downmotd : Returns the current @motd/down. Wiz/Roy only.
fullmotd : Returns the current @motd/full. Wiz/Roy only.
functions : Returns a list of all built-in functions and @functions.
commands : Returns a list of all built-in commands and @commands.
attribs : Returns all standard attributes.
locks : Returns the built-in lock types. Similar to llocks().
flags : Returns all flags. Similar to lflags().
powers : Returns all @powers.

“commands”/“functions” return both built-in and local commands/functions by default. You can specify a <type> of either “builtin”, “local” or “all” to limit this if you wish.

list rhost: the second form, used with rhost_list on, and examples

RhostMUSH form

With the rhost_list @config option on, list() is the second form instead, which comes from RhostMUSH; its first three arguments are TinyMUX’s list(). <eval> is evaluated for each element of <list>, as by iter(), and each result is told to you on a line of its own rather than returned. list() itself returns nothing. <delimiter> separates the elements and is a space when left out. A <header> that is not empty is told once, before the first result. A <target> you control hears the header and the results instead of you; a target you do not control, or one that is not found, is ignored. An empty list tells nothing, not even the header. See compatibility config.

Examples, with rhost_list on:

> think list(red blue,Color #@: ##)<br>
Color 1: red<br>
Color 2: blue<br>
> think list(a|b,[strlen(##)],|,Lengths:)<br>
Lengths:<br>
1<br>
