Question Trying to Find a Code Snippet for COMPARE Command

Trying to Find a Code Snippet for COMPARE Command was created by Maximus
Does anyone know where I might be able to find a code snippet for something like a COMPARE command that will work in tbaMUD? By this I mean a command that allows players to quickly compare two or more pieces of gear with the same wear or wield location. Different MUD's I have played have handled this differently, but anything to get me started will work. I'm a pretty novice coder, so the more "plug and play" the better. I'm not averse to learning the nessacery coding to make this work, but I would rather not reinvent the wheel if there is already something out there I can use. Thank you in advance for your help!

It is blocked from my work, but there should be a few old snippets for CircleMUD here:

Thanks for the link, that's a start anyway. I am getting errors when I try to compile this however. Here is what I am seeing:
Code:
make ../bin/circle make[1]: Entering directory `/home/goblinmu/tbamud-3.63/src' gcc -g -O2 -Wall -c -o act.informative.o act.informative.c act.informative.c: In function 'do_compare': act.informative.c:2683: warning: passing argument 1 of 'send_to_char' from incompatible pointer type act.informative.c:2683: warning: passing argument 2 of 'send_to_char' from incompatible pointer type act.informative.c:2688: warning: passing argument 3 of 'get_obj_in_list_vis' from incompatible pointer type act.informative.c:2688: error: too few arguments to function 'get_obj_in_list_vis' act.informative.c:2690: warning: passing argument 1 of 'send_to_char' from incompatible pointer type act.informative.c:2690: warning: passing argument 2 of 'send_to_char' from incompatible pointer type act.informative.c:2699: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range of data type act.informative.c:2708: warning: passing argument 1 of 'send_to_char' from incompatible pointer type act.informative.c:2708: warning: passing argument 2 of 'send_to_char' from incompatible pointer type act.informative.c:2713: warning: passing argument 3 of 'get_obj_in_list_vis' from incompatible pointer type act.informative.c:2713: error: too few arguments to function 'get_obj_in_list_vis' act.informative.c:2715: warning: passing argument 1 of 'send_to_char' from incompatible pointer type act.informative.c:2715: warning: passing argument 2 of 'send_to_char' from incompatible pointer type act.informative.c:2676: warning: unused variable 'dotmode' act.informative.c:2760:2: warning: no newline at end of file make[1]: *** [act.informative.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/goblinmu/tbamud-3.63/src' make: *** [all] Error 2

Any ideas?

On most old snippets you have to swap the arguments for send_to_char and mudlog.

So instead of:
send_to_char("text",ch);
you need:
send_to_char(ch, "text");

Look at the other errors and compare them to how they are used somewhere else in the code and adjust as well. That should fix the majority of your errors. Learn to use grep/find and compare proper usage.

I found that out of the three compare snippets, this one worked, I think without changes:
www.circlemud.org/pub/CircleMUD/submissi...ands/compare-new.txt

Even the send_to_char parts have already been changed.

However, it's missing these parts:
This one is mentioned but not explained:
Code:
interpreter.c around line 124 - { "compact" , "comp" , POS_DEAD , do_gen_tog , 0, SCMD_COMPACT }, + { "compare" , "comp" , POS_RESTING , do_compare , 0, 0 }, + { "compact" , "compa" , POS_DEAD , do_gen_tog , 0, SCMD_COMPACT },

This one is not mentioned that I can see:
Code:
act.h (act.informative.c section) around line 88 ACMD(do_areas); +ACMD(do_compare); ACMD(do_consider);

The line numbers are not guaranteed, of course, and are subject to change.
