=== quickstart ===

since iris doesn't have a nice editor dialog for hotkeys and macros yet, they have to be set up by editing config/mymacros.lua  

a few examples : 
  SetMacro("f6",		function() MacroCmd_Item_UseByName("bandage") MacroCmd_TargetSelf() end)
  SetMacro("ctrl+h",		function() MacroCmd_Spell("Heal") end)
  SetMacro("shift+alt+s",	function() MacroCmd_Skill("Spirit Speak") end)

=== about ===

<p>there is macro support in iris, but it is a bit different from the uo macro system.
</p><p>there is no ingame editor dialog for it, you have to edit a textfile&nbsp;: <b>config/mymacros.lua</b>
</p><p>you can use the macro system to assign hotkeys to toggle dialogs
(paperdoll,backpack..) , assign hotkeys for skills, spells and items,
and several other actions as well.
</p><p>macros can be mapped to all sorts of keys, including numbers and function keys
</p><p>you can specify modifyers, but currently if you use more than one, they have to be in that order&nbsp;: shift+alt+ctrl+f
</p><p>you can assign macros like this&nbsp;:
</p>

<h2> <span class="mw-headline"> scripting </span></h2>
<p>You can do complex scripting here, e.g. you can add conditions or similar.
a guide to the lua scripting language is here&nbsp;: [http://www.lua.org/pil/]
and a languag-reference is here&nbsp;: [http://www.lua.org/manual/5.0/]
</p><p>you can also make conditional macros like this
</p>

<pre>if (MacroRead_PlayerStat("curHits") &lt; 0.5*MacroRead_PlayerStat("maxHits")) then MacroCmd_Say("i'm half-dead&nbsp;!") end
</pre>
<p>(will trigger if the player health is below 50%)
</p>
<h2> <span class="mw-headline"> functions </span></h2>
<p>currently available read functions for that&nbsp;:
</p>
<pre>MacroRead_PlayerStat(statname)	-- read player stats, statname can be one of curHits,maxHits,curMana,maxMana,curStamina,maxStamina
MacroRead_TargetStat(statname)	-- read stats of selected target, statname can be one of curHits,maxHits
</pre>

=== journal ===


  gMyJournal = {}
  RegisterListenerOnce("Hook_Text",function (name,plaintext,serial,data) table.insert(gMyJournal,plaintext) ,"My_Hook_Text")
  lastid = #gMyJournal
  lastline = gMyJournal[#gMyJournal]


=== notes ===

<p>if you want to make a script that runs longer or waits for something, you need to start it as a job/coroutine:
</p>
<pre>job.create(function()
  -- place your code here
  DoSomething()
  job.wait(1000) -- waits 1sec
  DoAnotherThing()
  job.wait(1000)
  AddFadeLines("script finished")
end)
</pre>
<p>not all commands from uo are implemented yet, please tell us which ones you consider most important of the missing ones.
</p><p><br>

for a list of all available functions see http://zwischenwelt.org/trac/iris/browser/trunk/lua/lib.macrolist.lua

for complex script see [[Scripting]]


easyuo ids :  
 if (item.artid == easy2open("POF")) then ... end


helpful to reload your macros on hotkey : 
<pre>SetMacro("ctrl+f9",function() dofile(gMacroPathFile)  MacroCmd_RiseText(1,1,0,"reload") end)</pre>

=== example : bandage-loop ===

<pre>

SetMacro("f3",		function()   gMyBandageLoopActive = not gMyBandageLoopActive    end)

job.create(function() 
  while (true) do 
     if (gMyBandageLoopActive) then MacroCmd_BandageSelf() end
     job.wait(3*1000) 
  end 
end)

</pre>
