NickTemplate plugin by optimism_ on 12-08-2003 at 01:30 AM

Hi all

The NickTemplate plugin allows you to make templates in your screen name. What does this mean? well you have a basc format and then bits that change sometimes. With this plugin, you can quickly change the little bits without having to type out everything perfectly again.

You have 10 "variables", each named %0, %1, %2 etc, all the way up to %9. You can store part of your screen name in each variable.
You also have a "Format String" which contins the basic framework. When you change your screen name using the plugin, your screen name becomes the format string, but where-ever you have a variable, eg %2, that will be replaced by whatever you stored in the variable.

Example
Format String: %1 | %2 %3 %2
%1: optimism_
%2: :D
%3: We love Messenger Plus!

If you were to chnage your screen name using this plugin, it would become:
optimism_ | :D We love Messenger Plus! :D

You can also include the multi-format tags in the format string or in any variable.

That be about it, its pretty self explanitory. The only command you need to use the plugin is
/xNTConfig
and you might want to check out the about box
/xNTAbout

enjoy :)
