 Capturing text to another window
 
 |  
				| I'm trying to capture all tells to my TELL window(tabbed). But it only seems to capture some tells sent my way. Heres my trigger; 
 #TRIGGER {(*) tells you (*)} {#if (%2 = "Pull that again and I'm gonna kick your ass ..") {} {#cap {tell};#speak {%1 tells you %2}}} "Speak"
 
 Now it works perfectly if I do it this way;
 
 #TRIGGER {(*) tells you (*)} {#cap {tell};#speak {%1 tells you %2}} "Speak"
 
 Does anyone have any ideas why it won't catch every tell? I just wanted to filter out ones with;
 Pull that again and I'm gonna kick your ass ..

				| Try this #TRIGGER {(*) tells you (*)} {#if ("%2" = "Pull that again and I'm gonna kick your ass ..") {} {#cap {tell};#speak {%1 tells you %2}}} "Speak"

 LB beat me to it
  . 
 What is happening is that %2 will only refer to the first word in a multi-word combination, rather than the entire phrase (thus, the #IF logic becomes "Pull = Pull that again...", which is obviously a false statement).
