Pesterchum Quirks thread: Request and post your quirks here!

You typed Gradient(/1), not gradient (\1).

Of course I did, it would have to be something tiny and obvious like that.

It is still misbehaving, though. The text is now just black.

You have to include the # with the hex codes for the gradient, or else it defaults to black. For example, #FF0000 works fine but FF0000 does not.

How do I do it so that when I random replace, only vowels are included? My current quirk does all letters.

[littlegirldeath]

I have no idea what to use for a quirk! I want something that fits my personality (slightly bubbly with a dark twist). Right now I just have a stupid prefix emoticon. It's <(^o^)>. I know, lame. Gah. Any suggestions?

[Millidred]

Hello there! I want a quirk that looks like this:

[!][hello][!] [?][are you okay?][?]

And this is pretty much optional, but can I limit my messages to show only 5 words at a time?

To catch only vowels, simply use ([aeiou])

I'm not sure what it is you mean. I can see that a word with no punctuation is surrounded by [!], but then others are surrounded by [?] when the last word has a ?

Do you mean when there's no punctuation, use [!], and when there's punctuation at the end, surround it with [punctuation]?

As for limiting the messages, just don't type more than 5 words.

EDIT: Please read the first post. I've updated some information.

I want a sentence to be enclosed by square brackets except for the ending punctuation, which is also enclosed by square brackets but put outside the sentence. The same punctuation will be put before the sentence, also enclosed by brackets.

So it looks like this:

[.][it's hard to understand all these mess][.]

Without the punctuation, only the bracketed message will appear.
(The question mark inside the message is a typo I didn't notice)

[cardiacAtrophy]

regexp: ^(/w+[^.?!])$
replace: [\1]

regexp: ^K(/w+)([.?!])$
replace: [\2][\1][\2]

That should do it.

I did, though.

We can't figure out the problem simply based on what you tell us, we need to see the code. Please copy and paste it in here, along with your quirks.

I'm having trouble switching v with w and w with v. I tried simple replaces for both of them and v would become w but w wouldn't change to v.

You need a transitional character. The fastest set I could come up with (without losing capitalisation) is:

Regexp: v
Replace: ѽ

Regexp: w
Replace: v

Regexp: ѽ
Replace: w

Regexp: V
Replace: ѽ

Regexp: W
Replace: V

Regexp: ѽ
Replace: W

e: in case you can't tell, I always use a pumpkin for transitional characters.

[Millidred]

regexp: ^(/w+[^.?!])$
replace: [/1]

regexp: ^K(/w+)([.?!])$
replace: [\2][\1][\2]

That should do it.

I tried and checked this a couple of times, but nothing's really happening.

I messed up the first quirk. The [/1] should be a [\1].

Fixed the original post.

Has any asked how to do uu's quirk yet? I mean, I know how to do UU/Calliope's... but when it comes to using uu's I'm stuck ;-;

[trulyElse]

Regexp: (.+)
Replace: upper(\1)

Replace: U
With: u

[cardiacAtrophy]

Or, to condense it to a single quirk;

regexp: ([^uU])
replace: upper(\1)

[XP105]

Or even better:

regexp: ([^uU]+)
replace: upper(\1)

EDIT: Also, 100th post!!!

You realise that they weren't looking for Calliope's quirk, right?

e: never mind, I missed the Carat.

[XP105]

Yes. [^Uu] means everything that isn't u. So everything that's not u is capitalised.

[trulyElse]

Although, My version of the quirk still addresses the event of a capital U.

[cardiacAtrophy]

True.

Apologies. I am new to this.

import math
gradient = ('#333333', '#005C56', '#029E94', '#00BDB1')
def gradientmadness(text):
leng = len(text)
output = ''
if leng < 4:
for i in range(0, leng):
output += '<c=#%s>' % gradient[i]
for i in range(0, leng):
output += text[i] + '</c>'
else:
output += '<c=#'
output += '><c=#'.join(gradient)
output += '>'
size = int(math.ceil(leng / 4.0))
for i in range(1, 5):
output += text[(i-1)*size:i*size] + '</c>'
return output
gradientmadness.command="fsgradient"
#usage regex replace ^(.*)$ -> fsgradient(\1)

Python indentation matters to the program.
Forums typically do not display what they deem unnecessary white space .
Which breaks the python source
It's still in the post source though.
What you have to do is put it in code tags,

like this:[ code ] the code [ / code ]

I would read through it but I am on a phone.
