Timestamp is really starting to cheese me off.
I make my script run a timestamp command on startup, which checks if the user has specified timestamping to be on, and then loads a custom timestamp.
However, its being very retarded, and isn't timestamping everything even though I've specified the -e switch on start up.
So here's a suggesting, perhaps it would be great if /timestamp -ef <format> would actually force the timestamping on (if it wasn't already on), and then forced it to timestamp every window regardless of whether it's open or not.
At the moment, you have to have the windows open if you wish to specify the -e switch (considering that the -e switch does it for every bloody window, you'd actually expect it to do it for every bloody window, open or not, but it doesn't), and it's pissing me off royally.
*update*
Just when I thought it was my custom text output, I got proven wrong.
FFS. When I use /timestamp -ef of course I want it to timestamp. Instead of being all retarded, why not turn global timestamping on if it isn't already on when the /timestamp -e switch is run. After all, -e is meant to specify every fricken window.
Oh for some consistency!

*further update*
/timestamp -e is just stupid. Don't ever use it. If you want global timestamping (real global timestamping, not that pathetic excuse for -e) use /timestamp on
It works.
