Thanks Preocts. I have one request would it be possable to make it a .inc so it could be added to other macros? I also have a less than great memory and I think this could be more than usefull.

Thanks

Kudos Preocts, this is a pretty nice info utility. My memory is like a screen door and something like this would be great to help sort out the good, the bad and the ugly. *I keep forgetting where I put my peice of paper that has the list of people in EQ that shouldn't have been introduced to a computer* hehe Thanks 8)

Could you perhaps give an example of a situation where one would use this macro as opposed to say typing /note and adding the person there?

Not saying there isnt a good reason for this macro, just that I'm not seeing it yet.

Simple. One of my hotkey: "/macro playdat recall ${Target.Name}"

Just let's me pull up any info I have on that person with two clicks of a button. The group scan I also use with a hotkey for those rare times I'm not the one that formed a group.

I also have a fairly shakey memory and I like this idea a lot I think, but I had two requests:

I would like to be able to list multiple comments for people, and add a time/date stamp for each comment.

I guess Im picturing a file something like:

PlayerData log wrote:[IddiotWarrior]
(5/13/2004 15:01:17) Fucktard wiped the group...

[AwesomeCleric]
(5/13/2004 15:01:43) Awesome cleric almost saved us...
(5/13/2004 15:02:30) Already got us rezzed.

This look like something you would use and care to add?

That's a good idea Chill

I'll do it for a macro, maybe. Honestly I think I'll just make it a plugin. I have the night off so we'll see what happens.

Hope this works for you. Tested it this morning and everything I tried worked the way I wrote it to. Comments/Suggestions welcome as always.

Set the default maximum number of comments about people to 10, changable in the ini or by running the macro. Honestly can't see needing more than this, unless you run raids and such.

View feature is very nice, I think. Let's you pull up a specific entry, all the entries, or a range of them.

Add was giving me trouble until I realized that the way MQ was handling parameters changed, again.

You don't need to enclose the entire string of commands in "", just the "information" for the add command.
(spent about an hour debugging that one until I noticed what was happening)

Remove feature clears the specific entry, or all of them, and then bumps all the rest up so you don't have any empty gaps in the INI file. This makes it so any new information is always added to the bottom of the list unless you tell it otherwise.

I'm sleepie, going to curl up.
