MONITOR

FLAG: MONITOR (M)

Objects:

When set, anytime the object hears something from someone who passes the object's use lock, the object's attributes are scanned for attributes of the form '^<pattern>:<commandlist>'. If the message matches the wildcarded <pattern>, then <commandlist> is executed, substituting %0 for the text that matched the first wildcard, %1 for the second, and so on. All matching attributes are executed, not just the first.

Parents of MONITOR objects are never checked for ^-patterns.

Players:

When set on a player, this flag notifies that player whenever someone connects or disconnects from the MUSH. It is valid only for players, and must be set by a wizard.
