Allow that action?" Ok, may it would be better if it's impossible to change the server on an hidden Status Window. Cause than is no way to hidden an Status Window with active connection to some.net, and after hideing change to some-bad.net Last edited by Salz; 12/11/06 02:51 PM.

Why is controlling non-custom windows, in the way /window does a "problem"??? /Window should control all MDI windows equally. I think no other "bug" has caused me so much mental anguish! Yet making /set and /tokenize reserved words is some how a BAD thing?(referring to)... Not blaming Khaled, but blaming the people encouraging him otherwise. Believe it or not, structure is our friend, and restrictions are our ememy. There is a difference. Last edited by NaquadaServ; 15/11/06 06:14 AM.
