There are no 'rules' or guidelines at all in this.
would be nice if there where... i would be alot easier when using alot off scripts...
yeah true...
Although logic dictates is easly (and that is also the 'guideline' I use): "Plus! uses slashes for all its commands, so I do to in my scripts
because that is what the user is used to (and not "!", "^", "-" or any other character I've seen in scripts being used)."
Remote command are commands too... And having "!dp" and "/dp" may be confusing for people.
The idea is nice, but the fact remains that many scripts use "!" for normal commands too, hence the possible confusion. If there were no scripts using "!" for normal commands and everybody did the same, then the idea of making a destinction between commands and remote commands is great. But unfortunatly this isn't the case...
All it takes to let a command starting with a slash being reconized as a command is returning something (usually an empty string) in the ChatWndSendMessage event.
