Print

Function Syntax

void print(string message )

void print(string message ,string color )

• message is the text to print
• color is an html color name or code

Print the specified text message to the CLI. If the optional color parameter is specified and a valid html color code or entity, it will print in that color. See the CSS 2.1 color specification for a description of valid color syntax and keywords.

Code Sample

Prints stuff in color and black. Note that it prints black twice: first and last.

print("This is black.");
foreach color in $strings[blue, green, olive, darkorange, magenta, black]
   print("This is "+color+".", color);

CLI Equivalent

The CLI commands "fprint," "echo" and "fecho" have similar functionality, minus the color option. However, "cecho" (also "colorecho") does have this option for color.

Special

Using an invalid color name or code can cause odd colors to be chosen; see the Talk Page for details. As of r8638, attempting to print a string beginning with a slash(/) will cause KoLmafia to print a blank line instead. To avoid this behavior, you must specify the second argument for the text color. Any color will do, and even a blank string ("") will work.
