## C.71. `$world->path`

Abstract

$world->path function: generate sequences of directions forming a PATH

`void $world->path(` | `str` `)`;

str is a string defining a path. The following example shows the features of paths:

      3n2e4n2e{ne}e{open door}3n

The general syntax syntax is "`<number of repetitions><command>`". "`<number of repetitions>`" can be omitted, in this case it is considered as 1. `command` is the command that will be repeated. If it is not a one-letter command, it should be enclosed in braces (`{}`).

The example above would generate these commands:

      n
      n
      n
      e
      e
      n
      n
      n
      n
      e
      e
      ne
      e
      open door
      n
      n
      n

The commands are sent using the settings in the Sending tab of the Preferences dialog (see Section 5.2, “Sending”).
