String Lists

[wonderboysp2p]

is there a Flag to see if something is contained in a string list?


like

NPC Code:

---

if (playerchats&&startswith/ , #c){

tokenize #c;

}

if (strequals(#c,/checklist)){

if (inlist(this.list,#t(1))){

say2 Yep its in teh list!;

}

}

lindexof(list,text)

If it returns -1, it's not there.

It's the string list version of indexof - the function for finding the index of the start of one string in another.

You're thinking of aindexof(variable,array)
indexof is for finding the position of partstr in str
indexof(partstr,str)

What kai said is right:
lindexof( str, list ) - position of where the string appears in the string list


indexof() would be for like finding something in the players text or a non-array string

Kain has a point. I edited my post to be less ambiguous.
