To the sript writers

[Mezzac]

Hello all,

I am looking at witting a couple of books for my library - What I am wondering though is whether there is an easy way to copy original stuff via a script, into an ingame book rather than having to have to retype it all.

What I would like to be able to do is cut & paste the text into some sort of script and have it complete the blank books with the details.

Is it possible??


Thanks Mezzac

You wake up out of bed, walk out of your castle,
And then you lift up your head. ​

When will you wake up and see​

It takes more than just you to get through this life. ​

CRTL-v will paste the clipboard (up to a few paragraphs at a time)

You can copy from Word or Notepad then using Ctl/v can copy that into a game book. From there you can just use the Inscription skill to copy the book into another.

assign a macro key to "Paste" - it's on the list near "Cast Spell"

After many years in UO, I finally learned a way to copy books.
A bit embarassing .

UO Wedding has a feature that copies scripts into a book as well and if I recall correctly, it works better than copy/paste.
