| 14 This software is a simple PHP-based script for making <a | |
| 15 href="http://www.bat.org/">BatMUD</a> alchemist potion research easier and | |
| 16 a more bearable process. It will help you keep book of the combinations you | |
| 17 have researched and will automatically eliminate combinations that are not | |
| 18 possible. | |

| 21 <h2>Requirements</h2> | |
| 22 <p> | |
| 23 Requirements are simple, but may not be available to everyone. You will need | |
| 24 an environment capable of hosting PHP scripts, and a web-server. Most | |
| 25 UNIX/Linux shell accounts offer this possibility. PHP version 5 is | |

27 guarantees, however. <b>GD extension</b> for PHP is also currently required. |

| 29 <p> | |
| 30 Other thing you will need, of course, is a web-browser, for viewing the data. | |
| 31 </p> | |
| 32 | |
| 33 <h2>How to use</h2> | |
| 34 <p> | |
| 50 | 35 Input data for the script can be written in file <b>results.txt</b> |
| 67 | 36 either by hand, or any other way desired, such as MUD client triggers. Latest version of <a |
| 49 | 37 href="http://www.tnsp.org/~ccr/ggrtf/">GgrTF scriptset</a> for TinyFugue |
| 38 offers a nifty alchemist guild module, that can automate the data file | |
| 39 generation completely. | |
| 40 </p> | |
| 41 <p> | |
| 50 | 42 The format of the data file is as follows, example of a datafile can be |
| 49 | 43 found <a href="results_example.txt">here</a>. |
| 44 </p> | |
| 45 <ul> | |
| 46 <li>Any non-empty line that does NOT start with hash '#' character, is considered data.</li> | |
| 47 <li>Each data line is of format: <b>mineral</b> <b>organ</b> <b>herb</b> | |
| 48 <i>result</i></li> | |
| 68 | 49 <li>Each entry (mineral, organ, herb, result) is separated by whitespace |
| 50 of any amount you want to use.</li> | |
| 49 | 51 <li>Result field is as follows:<br /> |
| 52 <ul> | |
| 53 <li><b>-</b> : No match.</li> | |
| 54 <li><b>?potion_name</b> : Close, but no cigar.</li> | |
| 55 <li><b>!potion_name</b> : Found potion.</li> | |
| 56 </ul> | |
| 57 </li> | |
| 58 <li>Allowed names for minerals, herbs and organs are listed by the script. | |
| 59 Potion names are not limited, but you should be consistent, mismatches | |
| 60 cannot be detected!</li> | |
| 61 </ul> | |
