New support for multiple parameters to SKIN:Bang()

[XANCI]

Lua Script: Added support for multiple parameters to SKIN:Bang() to simplify bang arguments:
SKIN:Bang(string bang, string arg1, string arg2, string argN)
SKIN:Bang('!SetOption', 'Meter1', 'FontSize', '15')

Previously, a bang was sent using SKIN:Bang('bang string'). New scripts should use SKIN:Bang('!name', 'arg1', 'arg2', 'argN').

Is this really "simplify" bang arguments?

First check a simple one

Code: Select all

	SKIN:Bang('!SetOption mt1 SolidColor ffffff')
	SKIN:Bang('!SetOption','mt1','SolidColor','ffffff')

not simplified much when compare "','" with " "

Then how about this one?

Code: Select all

	s1='A "B'
	SKIN:Bang('!SetOption mt2 Text \"\"\"'..s1..'\"\"\"')
	SKIN:Bang('!SetOption','mt2','Text',s1)

there is a double quote in the string so if I use a complete !Bang I have to use triple-double quotes around parameter, but with the new feature this one is much simpler

Am I getting it?

Here's one to think about:

SKIN:Bang('!SetOption '..Meter[i]..' Text """'..Var..Text[i]..'"""')

becomes
SKIN:Bang('!SetOption',Meter[i],'Text',Var..Text[i])

It eliminates the need for both magic quotes and concatenation of multiple variables and conditions into one long string.

So, yes you are getting it.

Should

SKIN:Bang('!SetOption,Meter[i],'Text',Var..Text[i])

be

SKIN:Bang('!SetOption',Meter[i],'Text',Var..Text[i])

or is that ' after '!SetOption not required with the new SKIN:Bang()?

Sorry, that was a typo.
