Hi, I think Mushclient does not allow a callable object to be invoked (as specified by the "script" field) by aliases/triggers. However, in Python actually a function and a callable object are equivelent.

here's an example (i'm using activepython 2.6.4):

The alias:
===============


<aliases>
  <alias
   name="aTest"
   script="ctest"
   match="ctest"
   enabled="y"
   sequence="100"
  >
  </alias>
</aliases>

The code:
=====================


class CTest(object):
    def __call__(self, *args):
        world.note(u"hello")

ctest = CTest()

When you enter "ctest", an error msg box shows up:
"
Unable to invoke script subroutine "ctest" when processing alias "aTest"
"

If you rewrite the callable as a function, then it's OK.

Thanks!
