The AI Engine

Aischa: You are one hoopy frood!
Mireille: You're one hoop fronder.

I can see the AI Engine doesn't understand Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy speak!

Hmm...AI engine processes "nick name" into "snick name".

you're sure it's not dragging the "s" in from a tag or grammatical isolate (like if you've ",s" instead of "'s"?) It's certainly capable of quite worrying reinterpretation via its anagramiser circuits...

Aischa has "huh" as a key phrase, so she can recognise when someone deosn't understand her and deal with their confusion, but she never seems to pick up on it. what's the likely reason for this?

it's probably getting spell-checked away by the AI Engine. Try adding a AIScript raw tag "<?PF raw; ?>" (without the quotes,) and that will force it to use the word exactly as entered. Also handy for personal names.

Question: how do you get the diamond/diagonal brackets to show up? They always disappear for me.

Sorry, you need magic fingers. I just type them in and twitch my nose...
But seriously, I don't know. I'm using MIE 6 running under WinXP, and it just sorta works without me having had to give it any thought...

Hmm, I think you probably want to tweak your codepage settings. If you're running XP, that would be in Control Panel>Regional and Language Options. Hmm, and ...

what the Hell?!? when I check mine it seems to have defaulted to Croatian!?!
I've reset it to United Kingdom, so here's the test:

-1
If there's no pointy brackets there, you'd better set your code page to Croatian...

well **** me, no pointy brackets...
bizarre^2! I guess we'll all have to become Croatian just to use the internet

weird^2. I'm back to Croatian, and now it won't play
