trigger a macro via tell?

[asta]

On my Mellee accounts I am currently using a modified version of fight.mac. I have been trying to write a simple macro that would respond to a specific tell and assist the tell sender and initiate fight.mac, (much like Fippy did for that casterbot).

currently this is what I have been trying, dont laugh im a newb.
[/code]

#include core.mac
#include fight.mac

#chat tell

sub main

:holdingpat
/if chat=="kill this" {
/assist slaren
/call fight.mac
/tell $p0 killing %t}
/goto :holdingpat
/return

[/code]

As im sure you will see, this barely works for 1 mob. And ends macro at mobs death. Is there a way to set this macro so it will loop back to a holding pattern awaiting a new command?

Here is the fight.mac I use.

[/code]

| fight.mac
| Syntax: /macro fight.mac <ASSIST (0=none), range (1-3), tank=1 dmg=0, tracking 0=off 1=on, autoattack 0=off 1=on>
| example: /macro fight.mac larry 2 0 1 0
| Range is a multiplier of 5.
| Autoattack is mainly used for jousting in pvp (turns off attack if range >15)
#include core.mac
#turbo
#Event Enrage "has become ENRAGED."
#Event UnEnrage "is no longer enraged."
#Event Stunned "You are stunned!"
#Event Unstunned "You are unstunned."
#Event Loading "LOADING, PLEASE WAIT..."

Sub main
/if $gm==TRUE /echo GM IN ZONE!!!!
/if $p0!=0 {
/assist $p0
/delay 5
}
/varset v0 $target(name)
/varset v1 $target(id)
/varset v2 0 | enrage
/varset v3 0 | stun
/if $v0=="NULL" /goto :EndAF
/if n $p0!=0 /echo Assisting $p0 at range $p1 on $target(name) level $target(level).
/if n $p0==0 /echo Engaging at range $p1 on $target(name) level $target(level).


/attack on

Look at the threads for the cleric autohealers...I believe that some of them operate off of tells....
