mushclient and aliases

[inscribed]

I want to be able to type in 'l in back' or 'open back' and have it output 'l in backpack' or 'open backpack'. How do I do this.

[Guest emp_newb]

in your menu, go to game, then configure, then aliases. It is pretty self explanatory after that

[Marc]

you don't need to, 'l in back' and 'open back' will work in the mud.

Yeah, unless you want like a one letter type to open backpack, look in backpack, there's no point in adding that as an alias or anything.

alias *

whatever the alias to do and if there's a target %1

flame *

c 'flame arrow' %1

flame bumpkin = c 'flame arrow' bumpkin

i got it working. i don't use autoaim obj, causes too many problems.

i was hoping for a single alias that would always replace 'back' with 'backpack', but instead had to set up individual aliases for 'l in back', 'take * back', and 'put * back'.

Should have something called nicknames?

Will replace all instances of back with backpack.

Problem becomes: Hey man, watch your back! = Hey man, watch your backpack!

No worries there, play a thief.
