I'm trying to create exits with abbreviated aliases so that people can type just 'n' to go north.

The first line is what I typed and the rest is the result I got:

@open West ; wes ; we ; w = #4
Opened.
Whisper to whom?
New Room(#21Rn)
Type: Room Flags: NO_COMMAND
--snip--
South <S>,south,sout,sou,so,s(#24EG)
West(#16EG)
Huh? (Type "help" for help.)
Whisper to whom?
New Room(#21Rn)
Type: Room Flags: NO_COMMAND
--snip--
Exits:
South <S>,south,sout,sou,so,s(#24EG)
West(#16EG)
Whisper to whom?

I get the same results with no spaces between the delimiters. I'm running the Win32 version (with the lastest patches and no hacks). Is their a config setting I missed?

Thanks!

Have you got "command stacking" enabled in your client program? If so, it is breaking up your input line at the semicolons. Try turning that off.
