#CW not highlighting full strings
 
Ever since I got version 7.04, #CW hasn't been properly highlghting whole strings as it used to. What it does is cuts off somewhere in the beginning, starts up again, and then cuts off after a word or so. For example:

#TRIGGER {This is a test string only to be used as an example} {#CW red}

Version 7.01 - This is a test string only to be used as an example
Version 7.04 - This is a test string only to be used as an example

I wasn't sure if this was a bug, or rather something I was doing wrong, if anyone could find out it would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

I just tested a few more things, and apparently, with trigger options set to 'Newline', I got something like this (my prompt first):

#TRIGGER {Your mind softens as you feel your entire being} {#CW yellow}

H:4122 M:3888 [csdb eb] Your mind softens as you feel your entire being

In other words, it starts the messed up color string at the beginning of the line even, instead of getting the actual phrase. Hope this helps!!

I wanted to offer a bit of an update on what's happened here... After submitting a bug report (I appreciate the reply) it was discovered that apparently it's something of my own fault. What I was hoping to do is show you the trigger I just found that was causing the problems, and perhaps someone can tell me why it was causing this all to happen? Here's the buggy trigger:

#ONINPUT {(%w)} {#IF (@aeon) {#IF ((%1) != "smoke") {#GAG;#NOOP} {smoke 22539}}} "" {notrig}

I ended up jury-rigging it to a different trigger that worked, albeit kinda as a "kludge" but it worked nonetheless... Can anyone tell me what was causing this to mess up my #CW strings at all?
