| Is there a simple solution to reversing text?
Example using the alias "backsay":
>backsay "this is a test"
would come out as: Player says, "tset a si siht"
I've been reading and searching for a method, but I haven't seen one yet. Thanks in advance.

| If you are using VBScript, you can do something like this
Dim test
test = StrReverse("this is a test")

| So, to put that into a ready-to-use alias:
<aliases>
<alias
match="backsay *"
enabled="y"
send_to="12"
sequence="100"
>
<send>Send "say " & StrReverse ("%1")</send>
</alias>
</aliases>
Example
backsay hi there
You say 'ereht ih'

| I received this error when I attempted to paste the alias.
Line 8: No closing ";" in XML entity argument "&" (problem in this file)
What's that mean? | | Top |

| Sorry, I should have had & rather than &.
I have fixed the post above, try again with the correction. |
