I've been getting a blank space where a subject should be. But I guess that's because I should know be using the new features. The (subj) thing doesn't work as well anymore.

I've fixed (subj) up. It was working about half the time, now it's working like it used to.
I also added some security functions to the site. Thanks for pointing out the holes, leetax0r. If anyone sees something showing up strangely, let me know.

yes the old (subj) will now sometimes just take the subject of a sentence as apposed to the way it used to work, so when you see that occur you'll have to adjust the response accordingly with (sub)(vmodonly) or whatever it takes, and yes it takes some fiddlin'

You\'re right. I just ran some more tests, and it wasnt acting like it used to, so I rewrote it so that it does. (subj) was never an exact science, and that\'s why I created the new plugins. The rule goes something like this: if (subj) starts with a verb or adverb, the whole thing is returned. Otherwise, (subj) is cut off before the first verb or adverb.

Once again, I'm having problems trying to read transcripts. I noticed in the Personality forum that slyabney seems to be having the same problem.

If it's not too much trouble, do you think on the debug page you could add a table that runs down a list of each Sentence-Part Plug-In available and shows which part of the sentence will be returned by each?
| (ssub) | dog |
| (sub) | the dog |
| (submod) | the dog with spots |
| (submodonly) | with spots |
I know you already have the section between "Total Time" and "Pre-Pronoun" that sort of handles it, but it seems to me like it would be a little easier for us to manage those plugins if we had a more direct reference to them in the debug.

There's a section in there in purple that shows the available key and sentence-part plug-ins. If it's not listed there, then it's blank.
Looks like I have to take out some slashes..

Yes, similarly when I come back to the forge my name is in the box as "Turing/'s Dad."
