The speedwalk option in aliases should be improved a bit. It only supports the use of N,W,E,S,U,D directions, and not the (maybe infamous) sw,se,nw,ne directions. This is a bit annoying for me the least.

There is this problem. The use of "sw" in a speedwalk would be interpreted as a south followed by a west.
Like "/w3n2sw" would be read as n,n,n,s,s,w.
This is not a major problem though, just exchange nw,ne,sw,se with other characters like "z,x,c,v" or do a command seperator between the directions or something.
It's possible.

I hope this haven't been asked for earlier (even though I looked over the subjects), and that you come up with a solution.
Thanks anyway for a great product!

If you need to enter other directions or commands (eg. NE for NorthEast) then you can put them in brackets. Otherwise, NE would be North, followed by East. Thus, to send you North, West, and then NorthEast, you would enter:


N W (NE)


Similarly, any other special actions you might need to do can be done in the same way, eg:


(enter boat)



This is mentioned in the help file somewhere. :)
