Creator-Defined Statements documentation errors

[Aoide]

I'm working on learning how to write creator-defined statements and noticed two errors on the Ren'py Documenation: Creator-Defined Statements page.

First, under the documentation for the lexer it says:

Matches any word, including keywords. Returns the

"Returns the" <-- returns the what?

Second, the Example code parses the "who" as a string, so it shows up as "e" instead of "Eileen" in a test program.

This:

Code: Select all

def execute_smartline(o):
        who, what = o
        renpy.say(who, what)

Should be changed to this:

Code: Select all

def execute_smartline(o):
        who, what = o
        renpy.say(eval(who), what)

Although doing that doesn't seem to trigger the right lint error. I get a NameError instead of the custom "Character not defined: %s" renpy error. I tried a few things, but nothing worked so maybe someone who understands Creator-Defined Statements better than I do can get both to work properly.

Thanks!
