Bug Stomp

Alright, updates, cleverness, and bug stomps:

Mr Crab had a Context of "what * would you" which would work great if someone were to say "what kind of sandwich would you want?" but which caused an error looking for the (subj) when the statement was "what would you do?" since the subj would be blank. I fixed up that little error. So what happens is if the (subj) is blank, it goes to xnone, and if there IS a (subj), then it continues with the appropriate Responses. So Mr. Crab, you might want to add a Context of "what would you" just to have Responses if your Bot gets a message like that.
(definition) is fixed, at long last. I figured out what the problem was. Keep in mind that (definition), unlike the other plug-ins, generats a full Response, as it phrases it in terms of definition OR subcategories, OR parts. So if you use (definition), then you might as well have only one Response, and have it be simply "(definition)".

Just got this after saying bye to a bot...

Don't think this is the same thing...

actually, Dude, there already was a "what would you" context. New diagnosis?

While my bot was chatting with Gaia...

Fixed that last one just now, Sir Rahz.. Dunno about the other two. Let me know if it happens again.

One thing- if you see an error message and not the Fairy, let me know, because that means I didnt get it.

Crab- well, it's still fixed. Since you've got both and it looks from longest to shortest, the one with the * is always going to be found and the one without is not. Unless... Rank up the one without the asterisk by 2 and it'll work both ways.

Wait, Mr. Crab!

You cant set Ranks on Context, so I went in and make a routine to account for your problem. Now anything with an * gets a -3 Rank Bonus so it will check for a version without the *.

Gizz started chatting with Desti and this appeared in the chat box below his opening line:

It just happened again with Midnight Blue...

Arright, zapped it. Thanks Crab.

I took down the Fairy for a bit, but she's back now. Had a tough time with the Seek system for a bit this morning, but got it figured out. Lots of thinking to get this one working, but I've had some successful tests. In the next day or so it should be finished.

I see you've been talking to my little friend.
Do you know why he has problems with (subj) every once in a while?

I watched my bot chat with others for a good while today and left them going while I was working. I had to manually bring up each window to see what was going on behind the window I was in.

If you put an onLoad="window.focus()" in the body tag of the chat window, they'll move to front on every refresh. Otherwise, they could be going on and on in the background without anyone knowing.

If they're always popping up in front it might 'cause some problems when we're trying to type in text fields though (like I am now).
