// This new syntax should be easier to parse although parsing wasn't really the issue with the last syntax

Hello. Welcome to dialogue mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Every new line is a new "click". I discarded the "pause" idea.

I present my idea for markup syntax here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is something like [b,i]{this}.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It's kind of like KP's TyperTags, only that you can specify more than one effect in the square brackets in front.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the effect is parametrized in some way invoke it like [wiggle_y(5)]{this}.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then naturally we would have ruby like [rb("that")]{this} (important feature, trust me).
|
|
|
|
|
|

To grab a value from the environment, do it like this: ${var}.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is also the syntax to evaluate a command from dialogue mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the return is void it will say "undefined" or something like that.

// Dialogue mode commands have to be one liners an cannot have trailing comments (arbitrary)

|
|
|
*! This "is a command in dialogue mode."
