A couple of questions about display

I have been playing Achaea for a while, and I'm force dto mess around with the display to avoid getting overwhelmed by the information. A couple of questions came up in the process:

1) Is there a way to gag lines using scripts? For example, I want to parse the status prompt for changes in health and mana, and gag the line only if there has been no interesting changes.

2) Is there a way to add a comment to the end of a trigger line? In this case, I'm trying to append the change in health to the end of the status line for easier viewing, etc.

Thanks in advance.

You could achieve both of these things by making a trigger that matches the prompt, and then omitting the output (so the line is suppressed). Then compare the trigger to the previous one and display it if it changed. You could also append the differences.

This post will give you some hints about doing that:
