Ever been playing a game of
KoDP, and in the middle of an event, thought "Blue Spruce? Who are they?
Weren't they the ones that ... no, I can't remember - should I be polite
to them, or do we dislike them? Are they anywhere near me?" Well, it can
be difficult. I can't help with the location of the clan, but you can do
that yourself by occasionally using PrintScreen on the map screen, and
pasting the image into a graphics app. However, I have written a Perl
script that prints out the paragraphs that match against a given pattern.
For example: perl kodps.pl "blue spruce"
will print all of the paragraphs that contain the phrase blue spruce.
It isn't case sensitive, and you might want to put |
more at the end to break it into screenfuls. It does do word
wrapping, though, and displays the year before the paragraphs pertaining
to the query. Perl is available from http://www.activestate.com/
for Win32, and is available for Mac as well, try looking through
http://www.perl.com/CPAN/ports/index.html.
