Forest, will you talk to God Louise? She has quite a bit of religious knowledge (obviously) and also knows a little about current events, literature, just about any common catch-all subject, and if she doesn't know it she can sort of fake it. You can also test her on trick questions or see how willing she is to explain her paradigm.

What she is rustiest at is plain old small talk. But, uh, I'm trying to get a decent transcript from somebody or another so I can enter her in the Loebner contest. All I can say is, have fun and see if you can stay on with her for a while. I'll try to do the same with Brianna.

If I have a keyphrase for "I have a dog" and I wanted my bot to remember that, what kind of AI script could I use?

I tried: rem as "hasdog" but it was not a valid entry.

<?PF rem "yes" as "hasdog"; ?> should do it.
I love dogs. <?PF if (mem-hasdog) is "yes"; ?>
I love cats.

Duh! *smacks forehead*

Thank you so much, Joe!!

This might be a dumb question but...

If I make the following keyphrases:

"You are trying"
"You are trying *"

Would the use of the wildcard at the end make any difference?

Right now, I'm only using the first one and I'm including (postkey) in some of my responses.

(I'm assuming I'd have to use (key1) and (postkey) if I were to use the 2nd one. But, is it necessary to have both?)

for the first, "You are trying", you would need to use (postkey) to get "Hard" from "You are trying hard".

for the second, "You are trying *", you would use (key1) to get the same thing. I don't think (postkey) would give anything in that case.

Hm. But if I use the second one, then I might need to use both (key1) and (postkey) for something like "You're trying too hard" - right?

Otherwise my bot would interpret "too" as (key1) and it would need (postkey) for "hard".

(Or am I doing this wrong?)

And thank you for being so helpful, Shadyman! I really appreciate it.

I'm not sure if * takes more than one word. this is the eternal question that's been plaguing Steve.

If it does take more than one word, you would just need (key1). If it only takes one word, you would need to use (key1) and (postkey), in which case it would be easier to use just (postkey) in the first place and not even bother with the *

The * will take any number of words. It's better to use (postkey) and not put the * at the end of the Keyphrase. I dont even know if it'll let you.

Thank you both, Professor and Shadyman!

I'm gonna go with (postkey) because that's what seems to be working.

(And btw, yeah - I can use * at the end of the keyphrase. The Forge allowed me to do so.)

Can we have keyphrases for stuff such as "Hmm" and "Mmm"?

I have both, but they don't seem to be working. My bot will immediately go to an xnone or an xcommand when either come up in conversation.

I have them both ranked at 20. Should I try ranking higher, or will they be ignored anyway? (In which case, I guess I should just leave them alone. *G*)

if you try Debug, it'll tell you what they get spell-checked to. My guess is they're getting the axe as far as spelling goes.

Hee, hee. Someday, I *will* learn to read this. *nod nod*
