Is there any way to check an output passed to a datum?
Dec 3 2006, 9:45 am
world << [type of output here]
Wouldn't that work?

That would output [] to the world, yes, but I want know what output was received.

e.g.
world/RecieveOutput(message as text)
    message = html_encode(message)
    . = ..(message) // output the message

You're not making sense. the only way to see what output was recieved is to output it.

Are you basically saying that when you send a message example you want to see what was outputted to that person or whatever your outputting and see if it sent and the details etc??

I don't think there's a way to check recived output, or store it. Rather, implement your code example in a different way. Whenever you want to do "world << xyz", do CustomOutput(xyz) 
proc/CustomOutput(msg)
   world << html_encode(msg) //whatever you want

I'm not sure, but this may also work: 
/*random code:
CustomOutput(usr,"You died")
...
CustomOutput(world,"[usr] says: [msg[")
---*/
proc/CustomOutput(thing,msg)
    thing << html_encode(msg)

I've thought of that solution, but it isn't as convenient as receiving the output directly.

It's really pretty much the same if this is the kind of thing you wanna do.

You don't understand. While this solution does produce the wanted results, I want to use the '<<' operator and create a procedure that receives the output '<<' produced. It is somewhat more convenient to work with then this.

edit: After messing around with defines and the such, I produced the wanted results. Solved! =P

Of course I understand. Anyway, the proc receives the output '<<' is ABOUT to produce. :P

So, defined "<<" to replace to call a proc or so? :P

No, you still don't understand. :|
It's more convenient to use '<<' instead of a procedure.

I made it so
reference << "Hello"


is the same as
SendInput(src,reference,"Hello")


which is hard, as I needed to workaround spaces and the such. =/
