Any idea why my aliases are not working? I know how they work because i have done it before but with a new comp and new zmud, they dont seem to work.
Alias-spring
command-c 'create spring'
This is not what I am casting, but my example is similar and is not working.
Come to the dark side... Use GMUD

Type in the command you want to use on the command line, like
c 'create spring'
then hit ctrl+a and type spring in the top line, and then hit save.
Alias created!
Or just use the ingame alias system.
alias spring c 'create spring'
PM me if you need help with a few other things.
I find the in-game alias system works just fine for any that I need.

hells yeah!!! woot!
love my wintin.
Also, look in the lower right hand corner of the ZMUD screen next to the time. You should see a little gun and a little computer. If an 'X' is over the computer, the aliases are turned off. If an 'X' is over the gun, the triggers are turned off. Just click on it to toggle it on or off.
sweet kinicky that helps alot. Thanks for telling me about the in game aliases too. didnt know anything about that.
ermm. i think i screwed something up using the in same alias
I did something like this
alias create c create (this should create food, this is not what i was doing but exactly how I inpued it.)
I wanted to do some training while reading the forum and not having to enter the command followed by ! enter ! enter so I did this.
alias create c create; c create; c create; c create; c create; c create; c create -In my head this means that when I typle create and enter.... it creates food 7 times.
so....I hit create and spammed it 3 times so it would make sense to do it 21 times.
it kept going, and going, and going... on my screen I read
-stop spamming
-stop spamming
-last warning to stop spamming
-you have been mortally wounded and unable to move
(I didnt lose any hp... so did i just suffer a death or did it just paralyze me)
Well I now know that if you keep spamming it completely tools you. No it's not a death unless you've been KILLED and end up back at your pit, being mortally wounded is just like having been stunned by a challenge.
If you want to not get those stop spamming messages, every say ten commands or so make sure to toss in a where, or a who pk, or a prof self, or something. It'll break up the line of identical commands and the game won't annoy you about spamming.
Traning is best done with triggers not alias.
Example, training a spell.
1, Use the mud proficency command to get your trigger line.
prof charactername create food
will return..
Your proficiency at create food is 75%!
2, copy the "Your proficiency at create food is" part into the trigger (not the 75%, as this value will hopefully change 
)
3, set the trigger to perform two commands, the seperator in wintin is a ; i believe it is the same in zmud.
c 'create food';prof charactername create food
this will perform two commands visble to the mud, alternating them, thus avoiding spam lock.
4, With this set up you can start it by just typing prof charactername create food. You will show your prof, cast the spll, show prof, cat spell etc etc etc..... when you need to stop the trigger just type sleep...you will get two messags saying you cant do that while sleeping and its done. The best part of doing it with the prof command is that you can literally watch the progress bar advance, helps you feel like your getting somewhere!
Remember, never leave your session running unattended. Full on boting is illegal in FL and if caught you will get slain by an imm, or another player for that matter...if you dont starve to death...
Enjoy
