Message
I want to make an alias "setprompt" to do:
Send("prompt %carr %chan ...")
It doesn't work for anything that starts with %c because the %c gets expanded to the last thing copied so it sends this:
"prompt setpromptarr setprompthan"
instead of what I want it to do.

(Figured it out. I just had to put another % in front of the %c)
