Hi,
I can't manage to write an alias that starts with the chatacter /

It might be really simple but it's got me stumped.

If you check the "scripts" configuration page you will see that "/" is the default character to prefix an "inline" script. eg. you can type:


/world.note "hi there"


into the command window.

To work around this simply change the script prefix to some other character (or group of characters) (eg. "$$") that you want to use to indicate inline scripting. If you don't want to use inline scripting just make it blank.
