O.P. Dear scripters, please read! Some command guidelines.
It has come to my attention that there are some incompatibilities between formatting scripts and other scripts and add-ons.

The problem lies in the fact that formatting scripts put tags infront of commands too (sentences starting with ! or /), wich causes those commands not to be executed.

So if you guys could put in somehow to ignore sentences starting with ! or / all those problems will be solved.

Thank you.

Summary
Here's a listing/advice of/on how i think things should be (in order to try and set some standards and prevent conflicts):
  • Scripts:
  • User commands should always start with "/" (use of anything else is discouraged)
  • Remote commands should start with "!" (again please make this the standard, don't use anything else)
  • To prevent troubles executing any command sentences beginning with "/" and "!" should be ignored in (message)formatting scripts.
  • Other add-ons:
  • Should/have to use "!" for their commands as a standard in order to not conflict with Messenger Plus! Live user commands (this is the only time "!" should be used for anything else than a remote command)
