Tell History

[Bronson]

There are times when I'll be AFK for a moment and people are sending me tells, when I come back, only to find that I missed it, and it's gone past the buffer. I was thinking of a tells history command, where if you type "thist" it would show you the last like 10 tells you got or something.

Thoughts?

In my experience, you can usually scroll up and view the buffer history with the "page up" key (or fn+shift+up on Mac). That may or may not work with your mud client, I guess.

I think this would be useful for when tells get lost in combat or other spam -- easier than having to scroll up and trying to find them.

I've played on at least one MUD in the past that had a 'replay' command that would replay the last tell. I think something like that, or replaying a brief history of tells received, could be helpful at times.

This. This would be immensely helpful.

As a workaround, if you use zmud, you can configure it to log all tells you recieve in a separate tab with the following triggers:

Pattern: {tells you}
Command: #capture tells

Pattern: {replies to you}
Command: #capture tells

Thist or replay would be brilliant commands.
