Alright, I've looked at a lot of examples on the forum, and I tried to apply them to my situation, but I can't get it to work so hopefully someone a bit smarter than me can help out. Basically, I want to take a who list, shove it to a new window, AND make each entry (name) clickable to invoke that entry into my target list. I know how to do that using the #sub command. But, I can't get all of it to work together, let alone get the list to echo into the new window. So we have our pieces:

Who list command: bbw
Output:

:Who:#mxp {stuff you did before in the #sub}

Ahh, ok. That makes sense. Any idea on why it won't send the names to the new window in the first place?

OI! Well for starters does the bbw alias live inside the whocapture class? If so none of this should EVER work! Or if it does it should only work the first time.

Secondly, the comma will mess you up if use try to use the MXP so we have left it out. Don't think about this too hard as this comment only applys to THIS trigger and to the pattern of it.
Thirdly, I know that you are not setting your health and mana variables by the prompt trigger so there is no call for capturing the values with the (). %d matches numbers so you don't need to use * and %x captures all the information at the end of the prompt.

#alias bbw {#T+ whocapture;:Who:#CLR;~bbw} "whocapture"
#TRIGGER {(*),} {#CAP Who} "whocapture"
#TRIGGER {^(*)h, (*)m (*)} {#T- whocapture} "whocapture"

Should become

#alias bbw {#T+ whocaptureT;#T+ whocaptureTO;:Who:#CLR;~bbw} "whocapture"
#TRIGGER "whocaptureT" {(*)} {:Who:#mxp {stuff you did before in the #sub}} "whocapture"
#TRIGGER "whocaptureTO" {^%dh, %dm %x} {#T- whocaptureT;#T- whocaptureTO} "whocapture"

#alias bbw {#T+ whocaptureT;#T+ whocaptureTO;:Who:#CLR;~bbw} "whocapture"
#TRIGGER "whocaptureT" {(*)} {:Who:#mxp #mxp {~<send "t=%1">%1~</send>}} "whocapture"
#TRIGGER "whocaptureTO" {^%dh, %dm %x} {#T- whocaptureT;#T- whocaptureTO} "whocapture"

Doing the above actually put me in an endless loop. Here's some of the output

You have an extra #MXP in there. If that was the problem, looks like that will make the entire list one single clickable link--commas and all (which wasn't what you wanted).

If you want to change this, capture your list and convert the ", " to "|" with a %replace(). This list is now very compatible with a #FORALL, making it very easy (and quick) to send the separate links to the other window:

#trigger {your prompt trigger here that includes the use of the bbw command} {//used simply to zero in on the correct line}
#condition {^(*).$} {#forall %replace("%1",", ","|") {#additem Who %concat("~<send 'whatever needs to go here'~>",%1,"~</send~>")};:Who:%replace(@Who,"|",", ")}
