Ok I not sure when this came out, but in another topic
http://mxoboards.station.sony.com/matrix/board/message?board.id=coder&message.id=277

Kwnart let me know about the /codesructs command.
Kwnart suggested that anyone using it follow the steps below
1) Start the save chat log
2) type in /codestructs
3) End the save of the chat log.


I tested out the /codestructs command and here are the early results.

Good things about it.
It does list ?all? of the recipes that you can make.  I put ?s around
all because I can't verify that yet as I only tried it yesterday and the
notes under "Bad things" will give some problems with checking.  I only
took a quick glance in the chat area and did not keep a log.  I will check tonight
if I have time and let you know what is in the saved chat log.

Bad things about it.
1) The list only shows the names not any level, buffs, etc.  Also there is
an L that I saw appearing and I am not sure what that stands for.
2) It does not go in the order that is shown in the compiler.  I am not
sure what the order is, but I am guessing that it is either in difficulty
order, or Item ID order without a clothing type being in the order. I.E.
you would have shoes, shirt, coat, shoes, pants etc.
3) It does not tell other important info like Gender for clothing, cost of
clothing, buffs for clothing, difficulty of clothing, or Red frag needed
for clothing.

What does this command save you?
It will give you the name of the item that you can cut and paste out of the
chat log.  So it will save you from typing out the item name and making
a mistake.

As I check more into this I will update this topic.

Ok from what I can tell the L is for an item that you can make and
there is a K that stands for an ability that you can make. 
The items are in an order that I can't figure out from what I know
about the items.  I thought it could be by difficulty level, but I see
an invisability Belt (Diff 15) surrounded by lower level items.  I have
to guess that it is by an ID number that I can't see or don't know.
This could also be the reason that some Enhanced items appear
after the shielded / Armored items in the Code Analyzer.
Anyone with a Prima guild want to check out the sample I have below
and see if I am guessing right?

Ok now to the big question. How can this command be improved?

1) Allow you to pick your sort order ie by difficulty level
2) Allow you to just pick a certain type instead of all
   ie Footwear or Overcoats
3) show the difficulty level for an item, or the cost.

Is there anyway to make it so I don't have to edit out the date and the [System] cause it's horrible.

Yes, the delete button after you highlight the text.  SMILEY
Ok, here is what I did to mine after I got it.

1) Open the Chat file from ...\The Matrix Online\Profiles\YourAccountName\chat.log
2) Do a Find and Replace on the System line, replacing it with nothing.
3) I also liked replacing the " L" at the end, that required a little more work.
 I needed to run a few Find and Replace all for these words " La", " Le"
  " Li", " Lo", " Lu" with a  "-La", "-Le", "-Li", "-Lo", "-Lu".
4) Then do a Find and Replace all " L" with nothing.
5) Reverse #3
I think I have figured out all the words that have a L to start, but I could of missed
some.

Also remember that this shows the abilities, tools, weapons, etc that you can make
which leads me to the next post.  How to improve this.

Here are some ideas that I had for improving this.

1) Allow some additional fields that can be entered in the slash command
 Example: /codestructs AP - shows only Apparel with a further breakup
 allowed like /codestructs APO for Apparel / Outerwear

2) Allow sometype of sorting instead of by an unseen ID number which I think
 it is sorted by now.  Alphabetic is good
