yes, but this put some problems in the use of MSP...
to have a function that send msp code in the output, i have to predefine
each msp sound in the same way i define the ANSI colors (i think you mean a
sort fo parse_color cloned with msp commands instead of ansi colors).
But in this way, i can't:
1) use new sounds without first recompile the src
2) let users recall sounds in emote,tell,say whitout telling them each time
the relative &xx corresponding to the sound
3) let use user defined sounds (two player exchanging sounds not in use in
the mud), because if the use the sound to a player
without the msp_sound flag, that player will see the command (and i don't
want this to happen).
So i still think that the best way (even if difficult to implement) to
archieve the MSP sound in the mud, is to strip that sound from the buffer
before sending to the player, letting builders and players to use new
sounds "on the fly".
so.. any help on how to implement the "cut" on the string?
