Coloring specific words only.
|
Using #CW we could color certain words like doll. Now my problem is when a word dollar comes in it collors the "doll" in dollar. So I just put a space after doll like this "doll " so it colors only dollar. Now the problem is when a name like "Bodoll" comes in, if I put in the pattern " doll ", spaces before and after the word. The word doll that comes on the start of the sentence and line of the zmud wont be colored. How?

You can use the anchor characters, ^ and $, to indicate the beginning and end of a line.

If it comes in the middle of the line, you have a space in front of it and another space or punctuation after it.
I think you're hoping there's some magic way to put all this into one trigger. I don't think there is. |

Using something Zugg told me once when I was having a similar problem, I would have to suggest using something like:
{^doll%s|%sdoll%s|%sdoll$} for the pattern, might work, might not, haven't really tried it lately. |
