secondary window command lines
 
How do you send text entered into a command line of a secondary window to the primary window? I dont like to append windows to the main output window, but I would like to be able to focus on certain windows at certain time, but still be able to send text to the mud.

When entering text into the secondary window, prefix the commands with the following:
:windowname:

where windowname is the name of the main window. If you don't want to have to type this each time and would like the input to be always redirected to the main window, you can create an #ONINPUT trigger for each secondary window:
#ONINPUT {(*)} {:windowname:%1}
