To do it, i`d need to do one command which make two others commands.

I tried it:

"Message:"
/appearoffline
/online

RE: Making commands
To make multiple commands in 1 quicktext you have to proceed the next commands with #...

If you hoover your mouse over the quicktext-box a tooltip will popup saying that:
quote:
from Messenger Plus itself
If you want to specify more than one message or command, start new lines with the # character. Up to 20 actions can be specified, each one will be executed at a 0.5 second interval. Advanced users can even enter a different delay for each action. After the first #, just put a digit between 1 and 9 and another #.

Also, you can find that in the official tutorials and FAQ on www.msgplus.net.

quicktext:
/appearoffline
#/online
alias: /ame

Anyways... so you need to add # in front of the next commands, but you can also add a "time-delay" for when the command should be executed:

quicktext:
/appearoffline
#1#/online
alias: /ame


EDIT: blah, I've forgotten the fact that Choli mentioned, you can't execute anything after you've been set to "offline"... So this particular thing you want to do doesn't work.

RE: Making commands
hi, and welcome to the forums :wave:

you can't do it because as soon as yoou change your status to appear offilne you can't send any message and so you can't send the /online command to return to online status.

However, if what you want to do is show a popup in your contacts screenm you may try Hopper...let's Hop! (2.40.168: Si compounded - not Basic anymore!)

if you want to chain 2 messages (in this case 2 commands), put a # at the begining of each line from the 2nd one: ie

/appearoffline
#/online



edit:

Cookie was faster, but notice that

/appearoffline
#/online

won't work. It's just an example on how to chain 2 or more commands
