%stringSmokify()

Aliases%stringSmokify( )
Parametersstring @text [, integer @smokiness]

    This function will modify the given @text by replacing characters at
    random with a period (.). The amount of replacements done is dependent on
    the @smokiness parameter which represents the percent of characters to
    replace. If this is not provided then 50 is used as the default. The
    replacements are done in such a way as to preserve any colour tags or ANSI
    escape sequences, and so it is safe to use on colour enabled text. The
    "smokified" text is returned.

    Example:
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    %mobSendBufferOpen( @actor )
    %do( @actor, "look" )
    @buffer = %mobSendBufferGetContents( @actor )
    %mobSendBufferClose( @actor )

    @buffer = %stringSmokify( @buffer, 30 )

    %echoTo( @buffer, @actor, allowSleeping, noFormat )
