MQ2 scripts/macros in IS

Is there anything special one needs to do for the MQ2 scripts to work in IS? I think I remember hearing that you needed ISXLegacy at one time and that it was broken. I also thought I heard that IS can now read MQ2 scripts, or something like that.
The only other thing I'd like to ask is, how can I create a macro where on Toon 1 I send a message to Toon 2 and Toon 2 will cast a certain spell?
Not getting anywhere with Blizzard about the WoW account, but may re-install IS to help make boxing easier on me on EQ (thinking of getting a third account so this can make it easier for me)

Why use tells? IS has a relay system built in, you could send a command directly.

ISXEQLegacy is the MQ2 macro parser. Nobody has used it, everyone else is just rewriting macros (and plugins) in LavishScript. So I havent really bothered making it compile (which is the only problem with it atm, some #defines here and there missing or something)

Actually, I said send a message, but I agree I was refering to Tell, because its how I had my characters set up back in my mudding days.
As for the other one, then I can either hope someone ports the scripts over, I get smart and somehoe learn to port/write them myself, or beg and plead for you to make Legacy work... I prefer option one, but I still wanna dabble in option 2 eventually.
Thnks for the reply, Lax. I assume the Wiki has info on how to work the relay system so I'll go scower it for the info. (might have to learn to make a macro/script that sends the relay to my chanter and/or cleric for buffs/heals when needed without having to ask)

Okies, Lax (or anyone for that matter) I looked over Wiki and didn't see what I was looking for about the relaying commands to another window... can anyone point me in the right direction?

Well Lax, I tried to use the relay and the uplink relay and I have got to be doing something wrong or something is seriously messed up with IS... on my end at least...
Since this is for ISXEQ, I'll assume its prob best to post the problems over on the other boards.

Uplink and Relay are a bit misleading.
1st you have 3 consoles, main, is1, is2 where main is the systemtray console and is also the uplink console, is1 and is2 are game sessions. you can get the session list by typing session in the main console.
2nd the 2 game consoles is1 and is2 shouldn't really have the Relay command (unless i'm mistaken)
So here's how it works:
From is1 send 'Uplink Relay is2 -rsp echo message from is1'
that will send a Relay command to the uplink (main) console telling it to send 'echo message from is1' to the is2 console
As far as I can tell Relay without the -rsp is useless and Relay from a game session is useless.
There are a few places that contain the information about Uplink and Relay and they are all slightly different and I needed to gather info from them all to figure it out.
well on second(or 10th) look I found this line in a release note
- Added Relay command for sessions to avoid issues with re-parsing commands with the Uplink command
this link fails to mention the '-rsp' switch
http://www.lavishsoft.com/wiki/index.ph ... Command%29
so does this one
http://www.lavishsoft.com/wiki/index.ph ... Command%29
this one is also missing the '-rsp'
http://www.lavishsoft.com/kb/index.php?c=1&p=9076
and actually I can't seem to find any info on the '-rsp' switch execpt from my conversation with lax in the chat channel #isxeq
hope this helps
