Binding a hotkey to a chat channel - Kokuten - 03-26-2008 Mag and Pooky both stay in 'local' channel, at almost all times. Instead, I have numpad  1 set to open 'The Legendary' channel, and Numpad 4 set to open a different channel. Supergroup and Group I just /g blah blah enter or /sg blah blah enter. This is the bind for that. /bind numpad1 beginchat /send "The Legendary" [$name]: (be sure to leave a space after the colon). Posting here to help others, and to help myself, as I can never remember this bind for new toons, and I have three now that need it.Wire Geek - Burning the weak and trampling the dead since 1979 - Sofaspud - 03-26-2008 Dude! You rock. Past, oh, ten or twelve times I've played, I've wanted to respond quickly to something in The Legendary channel, but I'm on a mish, and by the time I click my way through the menu, I've either missed my Witty Response window or I've run out of time to actually say anything due to other events in the immediate vicinity. I'm *so* going to use this. Thank you! --sofaspud --"Listening to your kid is the audio equivalent of a Salvador Dali painting, Spud." --OpMegs - Kokuten - 03-27-2008 the modified version I use is /bind numpad1 beginchat /send "The Legendary" The above 'full' version includes toon name as part of the sent message, which is irritating and irrelevant.Wire Geek - Burning the weak and trampling the dead since 1979 - Bob Schroeck - 03-31-2008 Mmmm. This is something I've needed, too. Thanks! -- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak. - Wiregeek - 07-12-2008 bump, 'cause Aieeeeee "No can brain today.
