Over riding settings
 
Ok, this is what I've got... (aliases)

ee= retreat east
ww= retreat west
nn= retreat north
ss= ...
uu= ...
dd= ...


In another folder I have=

ee= retreat west
ww= retreat east
ss= ...
nn= ...
uu= ...
dd= ...



What I want to happen, is that when I enable the second folder, I want it to work of those aliases, and not the other ones. (without disabling the first folder)


Thanks, Bob

Use the ../folder/folder syntax? I dunno if that will work, and if not then you'll have to create a counter variable to be used to determine which one to use. Since you want both sets of aliases active at all times, you'll need to put this determination code into each alias.

not really. I don't use that syntax myself, so I'm not familiar with it. What it does is refer to a specific setting, thereby overriding ZMud's natural firstfound priority. As far as the counter variable, you can just set that in a trigger or something.
