| I know someone with two characters. They are named Bob and Doug (not really, but this is an example). I have a bad memory, so I write two aliases. One that does this:
match="whois bob"
<send>whois bob
whois doug</send>
Very simple and straightforward. Then, on one of my better days, I create the inverse of that:
match="whois doug"
<send>whois doug
whois bob</send>
That way I can remember either one of the two, and look up who both his characters are.
Being as popular as I am (who doesn't love a good healer?) I'm getting lots of friends with lots of characters, and keeping this many aliases is becoming cumbersome.
Is there any way I can do something like this:
match="whois doug|bob"
<send>whois doug
whois bob</send>

| Check the "regular expression" box for the alias. Then change the match text to:
match="^whois (doug|bob)$"
