So question

Marian

Is there an easy way to look at the code of something and see the trigger/alias/whatever to get it to activate/turn on/ show up on my screen? I'm trying to get the tabbed chat to work and I simply can't even find where i'm supposed to make it show up on my screen, let alone start doing what it was coded to do.

We don't have enough information. What client are you using? What have you tried? What problem have you run up against?

Oh, sorry, Mudlet and YATCO/demonnic, I finally got it so as soon as I boot up it appears, but the problem is not knowing what the trigger should be for says so it's only says, I tried putting 'says,' but that puts literally every channel into the tab. I assume there is a way of doing that seeing as there is a tab to do it. Also I am wondering if I could put, in the same trigger but different lines, something that will let me put GNT and GT in the same tab.

Right now all I am doing is just making a trigger with demonnic.chat:append("Channel") as the output, that I only learned after reading through a couple threads in the mudlet forum, so do understand how novice I am at coding.

That would be a better thread to ask in, for the record. 

Says would be setup like most of the others.  

Pattern would be: You say, "

choose option for substring at the start of the line

the command would be :  demonnic.chat:append("Says") 

The problem would be there are certain things that  make capturing other people's says hard due to speak  emotes and the like.  You might need some regex to do that.  I'd suggest asking in the other thread.

For capturing 2 different channels in the same tab you could just go down  to the second line  for your guild capture trigger. Continuing your gt/gnt example

Pattern would be: (GNTfancyname):

Choose substring at the start of the line

And you wouldn't have to add anything since it is already capturing to guild in theory.

Found a page of different mudlet codes and found something called 'imperian starter' that gave me everything I need, but this is still a good lesson that I learned whenever I need to go next. Thanks you two for helping.
