    * **Keywords** are what the rule will be an answer to. For example, if you want a rule to be triggered when the player will say "hi", then "hi" is the keyword to use. You can associate more than a keyword to a rule by concatenating them with the "|" character. Finally, "*" is a special keyword that means: "match everything". "*" is useful to provide generic answers.
  
    * **Answers** are what will be said when the rule is triggered. This is what the NPC replies to the player. Answers are stored in a list. When there is more than one answer in that list, one will be selected at random.
  
-   * **Preconditions** are flags that must match for the rule to be triggered. Each precondition has a name and a value. The default value of a precondition is "0". The flags are stored into each player, and will survive between gaming sessions. They are useful to set the point in a dialog reached by a player - you can see those as an "NPC memory". All conditions must have a name and a value. The ":" and ";" characters are forbidden. For a rule to be triggered, all the player's flags should match the preconditions. If you give "*" as the value for a precondition, it means that there is no need to match it. A precondition is a list in the form: [key, value]. All preconditions are stored in a list.

Note that you can use any string you want for the condition values, provided it doesn't contain ";" or ":".
  
    * **Postconditions** are the status changes to apply to the player's conditions after the rule has been triggered. Their format is similar to preconditions. A value of "*" means that the condition will not be touched.
  
  Once you have defined your rules, you have to assemble them into a dialog. Each dialog involves somebody who triggers it, somebody who answers, and has a unique name so it cannot be confused with other dialogs.
