TinyMUX Forms

SharpMUSH answers these calls as TinyMUX does, where PennMUSH refuses them or reads them otherwise (see compatibility arguments).

switch(<string>,<default>) is the default, a one-argument add() or and() is that argument tested or returned, itext() is the innermost loop’s element, and lnum() is empty.

wrap(<text>,<width>,<justify>,<left>,<right>,<hanging>,<osep>,<first width>) is TinyMUX’s wrap() whenever it has more than four arguments or its third starts with a letter: it pads every line to its width, justified left, right or center. See wrap tinymux.

ansi(<codes>,<string>,<codes2>,<string2>,...) marks up each string with the codes before it. secs(utc|local[,<digits>]) reads the clock in UTC or the server’s local time, to 0-7 decimal places. extract() and insert() take an output separator as a fifth argument, and remove() as a fourth; @@ there means no separator. With the fifth argument, insert() also takes the position one past the last word, and adds the word at the end.

setunion(), setinter(), setdiff() and setsymdiff() take TinyMUX’s order, the output separator and then the sort type, when the fourth argument is text that names no sort type and the fifth names one. A four-argument call stays PennMUSH’s, where any fourth argument is the sort type, so TinyMUX’s setunion(<list1>,<list2>,<delimiter>,<osep>) is written setunion(<list1>,<list2>,<delimiter>,,<osep>).
