Change to #know

Recommended Posts

I would like to make a list of the books I need to read - #know lists them highlighted to console - but copy paste removes the highlight

 

Can we have -

#know <string> -read|unread

 

To allow to search just those read / unread?

Probably easier to add 2 commands:

#known

#unknown

Aiming to Not have this problem soon :P but it would be nice if you could just do #know unread (or something else that does the same thing) to get a list of the books not read instead of getting a lost with 366 lines and then have to scroll through it.

I've put a patch on berlios to make this change. The #know command works exactly as before. However, if the first word is "-unread" then just unread books are show, if the first work is "-read" then just read books are shown. Exmaples:

 

#know axe

List of matching knowledge:

Axe Construction

Iron Axe

Steel Axe

Titanium Axe

You have read 3 of 4 matching books

 

#know -unread axe

List of matching knowledge:

Titanium Axe

You have read 3 of 4 matching books

 

#know -read axe

List of matching knowledge:

Axe Construction

Iron Axe

Steel Axe

You have read 3 of 4 matching books

 

If no additional text is included after the "-read" or "-unread" parameters then the full list of read/unread books is shown.

Changed the summary text too.

Another thing i would love seeing is a "#know total" command so you can get the "You have read *** of 366 books shown" message only and not the whole booklist first if that is possible?

OK, added "-total" parameter too. I've also made it so you can use short forms of the parameters "-r -u -t" or what ever the translations might be as long as they are unique.

And where will this syntax be documented in-game (as in a few weeks/months this post will be buried)?

The encyclopedia eventually? And/Or perhaps a single line output with the basic "#know" command:

You have read 203 of 366 matching books
Use -(t)otal -(r)ead or -(u)nread to select output.

That's a great idea; clear, concise instructions appended to command's output.
