byond need a mp3 version of the dm guide

So how does an 'ebook' equate to an mp3 exactly? These are completely different media - one text/graphics, the other audio.

Are you going to sing the DM guide from start to finish?

I'd suggest a deep bass voice for footnotes.

If you mean an audio book, then let me quote a snippet of code for you.

mob slash bump (bump is capitalised) open-parenthesis mob slash em close-parenthesis enter indent if open-parenthesis is-type (all one word) open-parenthesis em close-parenthesis ampersand-ampersand em dot key ampersand-ampersand ess-ar-see dot key close-parenthesis enter indent vair slash paws equals em dot lock enter em dot lock equals ess-ar-see dot loc enter ess-ar-see dot lock equals paws enter unindent else dot-dot open-parenthesis close-parenthesis

Translation:
mob/BUMP(mob/em)
  if(istype(em,em.key),src)//That was hard, don't know if I did it right =P
    var/paws=em.lock
    em.lock=src.loc
    src.lock=paws
  else ..()

That.. took forever to figure out =P

close! but I think: "if open-parenthesis is-type (all one word) open-parenthesis em close-parenthesis ampersand-ampersand em dot key ampersand-ampersand ess-ar-see dot key close-parenthesis" is:

if( istype(em) && em.key && src.key )

I was describing http://developer.byond.com/docs/guide/chap07.html#7.1.3 in a literal fashion. "paws" is "pos", "lock" is just "loc", "em" is "M", etc.

That was practically impossible, I say no to an Audio version of the DM Guide =P

I could do a rendition of Dust in the Wind. I'm sick with a chest cold right now, so it'd be even funnier.
