| Final thing (I think). I've pretty much guessed at how to do what I want with scripting, but this is the last thing I need in order to be comfortable with this client.
I need to be able to search my history based on what I've currently typed in.
For example, consider the following sequence of commands in the history:
c 'firey death' dragon
kill elf
kill monster
kill orc
kill dragon
kill hobgoblin
c 'fiery death' Unicorn
Now, on that last command, the way I want it to behave, is for me to type in "c", press up, and only cycle through those commands that start with "c", thereby going straight to the dragon one, which I can then quickly delete and modify as I need.
I was looking into the scripting and thought I could do this with scripts, but the SetCommand won't work if something's already in the command area (which of course, I need it to be).
I'm so used to having a bunch of commands with certain letters, and I can recall them instantly by typing in the first few letters and hitting up, sort of like a cross between tab completion for commands, and a history. | Top |

| You might be looking for,
Config > Input > Commands > Keyboard Preferences > Arrow Keys
which has a few options, notably Arrow Key Recalls Partial Command. | Top |

| Splendid! I think I'm now ready to start writing all the code I need to make the client behave like how I want. I bet it takes me ages though :( | Top |
