So, last time I ever tried subs...I substituted the letter A for 'prostitute'. Don't ask.

I have no idea how that happened, to be honest, soooo I'm going to try again.

I'm also going to need coloring, too, but I have no idea how to do that, either.

So, here's some examples of things I wanna try and learn how to sub or color...taken from a recent spar:



There, I hit rebounding, and sliced mah gut open. How would I be able to echo the rebounding? I know, trigger it with #echo or..something. Which line, though?

Here's another example...


How would I be able to sub and color (the background) of both lines? Subbing to something like...
'ALERT: WRITHED FREE OF IMPALE'...but obviously bigger, so it's noticeable. Hence the wanted background coloring.

Summed up, I'm asking how...
To color, both text and background.
To sub two/three/four lines.
To echo/sub some sort of broken line.

Yeah..all help appreciated. I hate systems.

For rebounding, something like this:
#trigger {aura and rebounds back into you.} {#echo YOU HIT REBOUNDING! HOW SILLY OF YOU. RAZE THEM!}


#trigger {^With an heroic effort you manage to writhe yourself free from that which impaled$} {#gag}
#cond {^you.$} {#gag;#echo *****************************;#ECHO %ansi(12,7)ALERT: WRITHED FREE OF IMPALE;#echo *****************************} {within|param=1}

To augment what Soll said, in the main zMUD window, go to HELP, and then COLOR PICKER. This is a tool which will give you the ansi code for various forground/background combinations. You can then put that number in an %ansi tag like:

#echo %ansi(75)W%ansi(95)H%ansi(58)E%ansi(14)E%ansi(116)!

... You get the picture.

Or you can be like me, and use #COLOR with random numbers.

Or you could just use color names and modifiers instead of the numbers. Using something like %ansi(bold,red,white) works fine.

I do that too
