Hi everyone, I'm new to the forums and a beginning programmer trying to program my first mud. I'm using lpc and the merentha mudlib with the mudOS driver on a linux system.
I have a couple questions. First, does anyone know of an active lpc coders forum? As I realize this isn't the best place to ask an lpc question, but I'm hoping the answer is general enough that I can get a good answer  Anyways, my problem is how with programming languages " is a commonly used symbol. Thus, I haven't been able to get the "says" in my mud working the way I'd like. Currently, when someone says blah, it comes out as; Someone says: Blah When what I want is... Someone says, "Blah." Anyone able to help? =) |

In LPC as in C, you can escape the quotes by preceeding it with a backslash.
So, \" will give you a quote literal in the middle of a string. There are a few other escape codes used in LPC, most frequently \n for linefeed and \i for tab. |
