BookshelfPatterns

A list of all the patterns I've discovered, as well as what they do.

PaperDisplay Iotas

I have discovered a way to make iotas that I can perceive as variously formatted text, useful for having my hexes show me things in a friendlier manner.


Typewriter Purification (str → display)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: awaqeeeee

Creates a display iota based on the provided string.


Typewriter Distillation (display, display → display)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: awaqeeeeewd

Creates a display iota by joining two display iotas together.


Lumière Distillation (display, vec → display)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: awaqeeeeewded

Sets the color of a display iota. The vector's x, y, and z components seem to each signify how red, green, or blue the color is, with 0 being not at all and 255 being the maximum.


Footnote Distillation (display, display|item → display)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: awaqeeeeewdew

Sets what I see when I hover over a display iota. If passed a display, shows that display iota verbatim. If passed an item frame, item entity, or a mote, shows the tooltip I would see on the item.


Gothic Distillation (display, bool → display)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: awaqeeeeedd

Sets whether the display iota is bold.


Manutius' Distillation (display, bool → display)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: awaqeeeeede

Sets whether the display iota is italicized.


Notetaker's Distillation (display, bool → display)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: awaqeeeeedw

Sets whether the display iota is underlined.


Editor's Distillation (display, bool → display)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: awaqeeeeedq

Sets whether the display iota is struck through.


Censor's Distillation (display, bool → display)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: awaqeeeeeda

Sets whether the display iota is obfuscated.


Banner PatternRegular Expressions

I've read tales of grand mages using arcane and inscrutable strings of characters understood by Nature known as a regular expression, representing a certain pattern in text for Nature to find.
I believe I have found the texts describing the syntax of this language here.

Have you tried using an XML parser instead?


Thompson's Purification (str → regex)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: qwawqwaqwdda

Creates a regular expression based on the provided string.


Haystack Distillation (str, regex → [[str]])

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: qwawqwaqw

Finds all matches of the regular expression in the string. Each element of the resulting list is a match, each match being a list of its capture groups, with group 0 being the whole match.


Typesetter's Distillation (regex, bool → regex)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: qwawqwaqe

Sets or clears the i flag, which makes the regular expression be case-insensitive when set.


Orator's Distillation (regex, bool → regex)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: qwawqwaqea

Sets or clears the s flag, which makes a . able to match a newline when set.


Essayist's Distillation (regex, bool → regex)

Your browser does not support visualizing patterns. Pattern code: qwawqwaqeaa

Sets or clears the m flag, which makes ^ and $ match the start and end of a line when set.
