Aliases?



Asked: 2000.10.31
Name: Sarec of FrostFell
Question Title: Aliases?
Category: Communications
Question: Until your new big communication patch comes out, have you considered allowing us to alias long winded text with shorter versions to allow us to chat easier

Example:
/alias a1=/tell Joe Inyaw Berop,

Then later you type:
a1 hey man sups?

Answer: We would love to add aliases at some point soon in AC. However, it is a non trivial task, and their are a couple of communication improvements which we feel will be very useful and easier to implement.

So, aliases are still high on our wish list, but it may be awhile (longer than 3 months) before we start to see actual progress made towards that goal.
