Can I log all commands that I entered, and only them?

I want to log all commands that I type for one session, then load each word up into #tab =D

Several things you can do:

#history write <filename> will write your command history to file.

#history read <filename> will load a command history file, but those command are only accessible with ctrl-r, ! and arrow up/down.


To create a tab list the following should work, need to be logging in raw or plain mode though:

#event {RECEIVED INPUT} {#line log tab.tin {#tab {%0}}}

[Zonbidesu]

Wouldn't that be slower then just logging it all at once at the end of my gameplaying and then saving it to the tab list? Methinks I don't want that being done every time I enter a command as I enter it.

[Scandum]

It takes less than a millisecond, so you won't notice it.

There is however an issue with the tab list growing incredibly big. You'd probably want to use at startup:

#class tab read tab.tin
#class tab write tab.tin


All in all you'll probably be better off reading and writing a history list and using ! and ctrl-r:

#event {SESSION DISCONNECTED} {#history write history.tin}
#event {SESSION CONNECTED} {#history read history.tin}

Is there an easy way to make autotab not case sensitive?

The most common use for tab completion for me is player names. They tend to be capitalized on my mud and I want to be able to do "finger des<tab>" and have it fill in "desadrin" or whatever.

[Scandum]

I've tried that but it generated too many false positives.

Like typing finger Wes<tab> to finger Wesley and autotab would pick 'west' from the exit list.
