I am trying to make an alias with a variable target system. I would like to have it work like this, if I were to type lets say "bl (targets name)" it would then set that target in the variable and send text to the world "party emote is blinding (recall target name from variable)" I have tried many different things and am unfortunately not overly educated in perl script, any help with this would be very much appreciated. Thank you for your time in advance.

This could honestly be done without Perl; keep in mind Perl won't work under Lion, because CamelBones never got updated for Lion when Sherm passed away.

To do it just using the Atlantis action system, if the target doesn't need to be stored between multiple runs, I would just do something like an alias of 'bl' and then make the actions:

Send text to world: party emote is blinding %{command.data}
Send text to world: blind %{command.data}

Then 'bl giant aardvark' would send: 'party emote is blinding giant aardvark' and 'blind giant aardvark' to the game. Does that help at all?
