Trigger issues in Mudlet

Liok

I'm trying to do this:

^(\w+) put your hands on your hips and go "Hmmm!"$   (Where the start of this line and the value for "target" is "You.")

if matches[2] == target then

cecho("<cyan>\nHey, this is working!")

end

And it's working... but only when I remember to capitalize my target's name.  Is there a way I can make the same trigger work without needing to capitalize the value for "target?"

There are ways to fudge it into your triggers, but probably the best way is to use something like this as your target alias:

target = matches[2]:title()

This will make sure your target is always capitalized. If you're set on the other way, you can use matches[2]:lower() in your trigger to make it lowercase, but to make sure your target wasn't input as upper case then you'd probably use:

if matches[2]:lower()==target:lower() then

Awesome! I'll try out the first one. Thanks so much!

Edit: That's *exactly* what I was looking for. Thanks again!
