| Was wondering if there is a way to create aliases that inherit the base of other aliases? I know this is possible in Zmud and an example of this would be:
#ALIAS bdoledr {dolw;wdollin;wlinmid;wmidpel;wpelosg;wosgroi;wroimid;wmidedr;wedr}
bdoledr being the new alias name and ({dolw;wdollin;wlinmid;wmidpel;wpelosg;wosgroi;wroimid;wmidedr;wedr}) using the paths/commands described in those aliases and executing them.
Thanks, if this is confusing, I'll try to explain further. | Top |

| Certainly, all you need to do is set the alias to "send to: execute".
This sends the "send" field to be re-evaluated by the command processor, thus the base aliases are then interpreted.
I assume you will have command stacking enabled, so that the semicolon breaks up the individual words. Then it would look like this:
<aliases>
<alias
match="bdoledr"
enabled="y"
send_to="10"
sequence="100"
>
<send>dolw;wdollin;wlinmid;wmidpel;wpelosg;wosgroi;wroimid;wmidedr;wedr</send>
</alias>
</aliases>
See http://mushclient.com/pasting for how to copy that into the client. |

| If you didn't want to use command stacking, an alternative would be to simply place each alias on its own line:
<aliases>
<alias
match="bdoledr"
enabled="y"
send_to="10"
sequence="100"
>
<send>dolw
wdollin
wlinmid
wmidpel
wpelosg
wosgroi
wroimid
wmidedr
wedr</send>
</alias>
</aliases>
