| Name | ElementTag |
| Prefix | el@ |
| Identity Format | Just the plain text of the element value, no prefix or formatting. |
| Description | ElementTags are simple objects that contain a simple bit of text.
Their main usage is within the replaceable tag system, often times returned from the use of another tag that isn't returning a specific object type, such as a location or entity. For example, <player.name> or <list[item1|item2|item3].comma_separated> will both return ElementTags. Pluses to the ElementTag system is the ability to utilize its tag attributes, which can provide a range of functionality that should be familiar from any other programming language, such as 'to_uppercase', 'split', 'replace', 'contains', and many more. See 'ElementTag.*' tags for more information. While information fetched from other tags resulting in an ElementTag is often times automatically handled, it may be desirable to utilize element attributes from text/numbers/etc. that aren't already an element object. To accomplish this, the standard 'element' tag base can be used for the creation of a new element. For example: <element[This_is_a_test].to_uppercase> will result in the value 'THIS_IS_A_TEST'. Note that while other objects often return their object identifier (p@, li@, e@, etc.), elements usually do not (except special type-validation circumstances). They will, however, recognize the object notation "el@" if it is used. |
| Matchable | ElementTag matchers, often used as a default when other object types aren't available
"integer": plaintext: matches if the element is an integer number. "decimal": plaintext: matches if the element is a decimal number. "boolean": plaintext: matches if the element is a valid boolean ("true" or "false"). |
