Ross Carlson Posted January 26, 2012 at 08:27 AM Posted January 26, 2012 at 08:27 AM I'm not sure ... I don't know of one, but there might be one baked into the server code. Why do you ask?

William Lewis Posted January 26, 2012 at 08:37 AM Author Posted January 26, 2012 at 08:37 AM Alias command for a long PM message. After toying with it for a while I found that when I shortened the message it did send so there does appear to be a character limit, but I did not spend the time to determine what that limit is.

William Lewis Posted January 26, 2012 at 08:40 AM Author Posted January 26, 2012 at 08:40 AM On a similar yet other note I would like to discuss another alias function but was having trouble with it that I would like to discuss with you. It would be difficult to discuss via text, are you available to talk via Skype or TS? [email protected] Edit: not tonight but some other day this week.

William Lewis Posted January 27, 2012 at 04:21 AM Author Posted January 27, 2012 at 04:21 AM Ok, after some experimenting I believe i have limited down what i am looking to complete not making it as complex as originally thought, but... Is there a way to create an Alias command which will respond via multiple lines rather than a single line?

William Lewis Posted January 27, 2012 at 10:51 AM Author Posted January 27, 2012 at 10:51 AM shucks I was hoping that the command that allows the ATIS maker to send the text ATIS in multiple lines could also be used within an ALIAS.
