Print an SLURL with LUA as-in, not converted into a link

Hello, Henri!

I made a button


	Code: SideBarButton(6, "U", "MakeDialog('SLURL', 'Put the UUID', '', 'Agent', 'Group', 'Dispatch', 'DialogClose()', 'DialogClose()', 'DialogClose()')", "Produce an SLURL and dispatch it")

with the code


	Code: function OnLuaDialogClose(title, button, text) if title == "SLURL" then if button == 1 then slurl1 = "secondlife:///app/agent/" .. text .. "/about"; print(slurl1); DispatchSLURL(slurl1); elseif button == 2 then slurl2 = "secondlife:///app/group/" .. text .. "/about"; print(slurl2); DispatchSLURL(slurl2); elseif button == 3 then DispatchSLURL(text) end end end

The idea is that I will feed it the UUID of an agent or group and it'll open the agent or group's profile, but also that it will paste the SLURL itself for me, as-is, that is the raw address and not the link, so I can give it to someone else, put it on notecard etc. The first part works, the second doesn't.

Example: If I feed it with b43c4b76-3816-49ce-933d-e1a4eef3226e, it opens your profile and prints in local

while I'd like it to print secondlife:///app/agent/b43c4b76-3816-49ce-933d-e1a4eef3226e/about (or both!).

Is there some way I can do that? Thanks!

In the meantime I made a workaround:


	Code: print("secondlife:///app/agent/@" .. text .. "@/about")

SLURLs are automatically converted to links in the chat history, so you cannot do that.

However, and since you want to copy/paste such SLURLs, why don't you just copy them via Lua in the copy/paste buffer, using SetClipBoardString() instead of print() ?
