ok, I added this because I had problems in the help files with % symbols and such. anyway, what this does, is allow you to use the send_to_charf() functions (and all other *f() functions that work like printf()) and still allow for '%' in the statement. ok, in the #define statement, where you do something like so: #define send_to_room(messg, room) send_to_roomf(room, messg) replace it with #define send_to_room(messg, room) send_to_roomf(room, "%s", messg) what that does is basically send the messg AS the format, so that all '%'s are interpreted AS IS. just do this for all the #define's you have that point to an *f() function. That's it. l8r Code On Akuma the Raging Coder +------------------------------------------------------------+ | "The poets talk about love, but what I talk about is DOOM, | | because in the end, DOOM is all that counts." - | | Alex Machine/George Stark/Stephen King, The Dark Half | | "Nothing is IMPOSSIBLE, Just IMPROBABLE" | | "Easier Said Than Done, But Better Done Than Said..." | +------------------------------------------------------------+ +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
