Argon

Argon is not being maintained as of ascension. I fixed the most serious bugs with the new chat color system, but there are limits to what can be done when Jick isn't even consistent with himself on the same line. If he ever announces he'll actually clean up the chat code, or let a third party do it, let me know. If you need to contact me, for that or another reason, the email below is suggested.

Current file list, v0.2

argon.html
The helper page itself. Just click this to use the helper online.
argon_style.css
The CSS. Big surprise, there.
argon_data.js
Stores all the game data about items, mixing, etc. These lists are incomplete at the moment. If that becomes a problem, annoy me until I complete them.
argon_user.js
Stores user configuration and default config. If you download the helper, this is probably a file you'll want to customize quite a bit.
argon_script.js
The main workhorse. Interfaces to KoL, automation functions, etc etc
argon_chat.js (optional)
Provides chat functionality. This is in addition to the vanilla helper. Skipping this module does not leave you chatless.
argon_log.js (optional)
Sends item use and adventure data to my database. This includes your character name, so if you treasure your privacy, don't use this.

Notes and stuff

Please only do one scripting action at a time. Starting multiple item use sequences, for example, can mess up the request ordering. Similarily, doing anything while adventuring will probably crash and burn because the adventures override all other windows. I'll aim to block this later, but at the moment it's on the honor system.

It should be possible to use the helper both directly online or to download it. Note that running the helper from file:/// on WinXP SP2 will trigger a script warning.

To run the helper you have to allow cross-domain XMLHTTP access. The error message you get explains the basics. If you need more help, contact me (see below).

The chat should have all features of the regular chat except macros. Additional features include automatic /reply insertion when typing text in the message window, automatic / insertion in the status window, separate channels, text highlighting (defaults to full char name), and maybe more that I've forgotten about.

Questions, comments, feedback, etc are extremely welcome. I can be reached with kmail (Grignr, #79854), on the forums (Grignr, or in helper thread), or by email (lewdrumslap@yahoo.com).
