Tag reference

Overview of tags

A tag is something enclosed between [ ]. Basically, they should be written in lower case letters. The name of the tag should be written immediately after the [ (no white spaces). For example, the tag trans would be [trans].

Tags have attributes that can be used to specify tag options. If you don’t want to specify any attributes, just put [ after the tag name and the tag is completed. For example, [ct].

If you want to specify an attribute, always write the name of the attribute after the tag name or after the previous attribute, leaving a half-width space between them. The attribute name must be followed by = and then the value of the attribute. After writing all the attributes, close the tag with ].

For example, if you want to write the attribute “time” in the trans tag, you would write [trans time=0], and if you want to write the attribute rule=trans vague=1, write [trans time=0 rule=trans vague=1].

The value of the attribute can be enclosed in "" or not. For example, [trans time="0"] and [trans time=0] are the same. However, if the value of an attribute contains spaces, it must be surrounded by "". For example, [font face="MS P Gothic"].

Also, if & is added to the beginning of an attribute value, anything written after it will be evaluated as a TJS expression, and the result will be used as the attribute value. For example, if you write [trans time=&f.clearTime], the content of the variable f.clearTime will become the value of the time attribute.

If you omit the value of an attribute (i.e., do not write anything after ‘=’ in the attribute), it will be assumed that the value of the attribute true is specified. For example, [playse loop storage="shock.wav"] omits the value of the loop attribute, which is equivalent to [playse loop=true storage="shock.wav"].

Command line

The command line begins with @, followed by the tag name and attributes.

Only one tag can be written in a line.

The following two lines are equivalent.

[trans time=0 rule=trans vague=1]
@trans time=0 rule=trans vague=1

Cond attribute

macro endmacro if else elsif endif ignore endignore iscript are tags that requires cond attribute, except for the endscript tag.

The cond attribute specifies a TJS expression, and the tag will be executed only if the result of evaluating this expression is true. If it is false, the tag will not be executed.

Example :

[if cond=f.noskip] ; ↑ f.noskip
; ↑ Execute l tag only when f.noskip is true
