locate cast 'locate object' &1; bolt cast 'bolt of glory' &1; holy cast 'holy word' cast cure serious' cast cure serious' &1; ] cast 'cure serious' &1; [ release all Total number of aliases defined: 20 I tried to define ' as cast 'cure serious' but it didn't work. And I type " alias ' " but couldn't delete it. Is there any way to remove all alias with one command? I wanna delete the two wasted slots |

try "unalias ' " and that might work. The reason you can't use some of the punctuation marks like ' for aliases is because they are already aliased by the MUD code. ' = say for example. |

alias <alias name> Basically if you typed alias cl cast 'cure light' &1 would set cl as a short cut for casting cure light, now typing alias cl Will delete the alias shortcut you made for it. And in your case, you may want to turn parcing off on your mud client as it reserves certain characters for other commands. |

[Zynor edit: Please don't suggest people delete their entire character file when trying to solve a minor problem. Newbies who are learning the game will get rather disappointed, even if the more experienced players know this is an attempt at humour.] |

Though in this case it wouldn't be the best solution sleeper |

umm.... unalias didn't work, it showed "no such alias" the problem is, I tried to set alias " alias ' cast 'cure serious' &1 " but it won't work, ' still works as say command. then I type " alias ' " to delete it, it just listed 20 alias I set but didn't do anything. |

You can only have 20 aliases total. If you want to make another alias, you'll first need to get rid of at least one that you've currently got. To do that, simply type "alias aliasname". That will delete whatever alias you named. Then, you can make another. But, when you try to make another, keep in mind that you cannot use as your alias name any character that is already used as a mud command. ' is a shortcut for "say", so it's not going to be acceptable as an alias name for you to set, even once you pare your list down to under 20 other aliases. |

If I am understanding the problem correctly, it seems that the mud permitted the defining of the alias ' but will not allow it to be deleted. |

No. He said that ' still functions as the "say" command, which is what the mud defines it to be via the code itself. Hard-coded shortcuts (' and ; for example) cannot be otherwise aliased; the mud simply does not allow that to happen. I tried it tonight, trying to duplicate the problems that he was experiencing. |

But the alias list in the first post included two aliases with no names, which I presume the poster wanted to be rid of. |
