Hello fellow mudders!

I need help to make an alias that will remember the last 10 tells or so

xxx tells you 'whatever'

I want to be able to simply type tells to be able to see those last 10 tells..:)

I am using the latest version of cMUD.

I suggest, instead of an alias to recall the last 10 tells, that you use a window to show all your tells in. You can adjust the size of the window to show 10 or so tells at once, and you can scroll back to see previous tells, if you wish.

First, create a window for Tells, by typing the following into the command line.

#WINDOW Tells

That will create the window that will display your Tells. You can position it on your screen where you want.

Next, create a trigger as follows...

Pattern: ^* tells you
Script text: #CAPTURE Tells; #GAGSPACE

See if that will do what you need.

thanks for ansvering..:)

but I dont get it to work..

I got the window up and that seems to be working
and I created the trigger exactly how you mentioned it
but it wont capture anything..the "^*" gets marked red in the trigger though.

should I use XML or zscript or what would work?

Try changing the trigger to "* tells you *" (without the quote marks).

Yes, I did type the script text in zScript.
