==Contributions:==
: Sharon wrote the powerful in-line [[alias]] sub-system, alias,c, for JediMUD, allowing players to create command line macros for repeated actions. She is also credited with adding auto-exits to room descriptions, making world navigation easier. Prior to autoexits, a traveler had to manually "look the room," causing needless i/o and processing spam.

: The command set was especially helpful for those players not using a client, like tintin, tintin++, zmud, cmud, or others. If you were using raw telnet, the alias command made casting, speedwalking, corpse looting and other repeated actions more convenient to execute.

===Writing Macro/Aliases:===
: For example, if you had created many characters, you might want to display a consistent prompt across your collection. You might copy and paste an alias "prmpt" to provide a consistent prompt for each character:
> alias prmpt prompt [%h/%H %m/%M %v/%V] %o %a %X %Av %s

====Alias Examples:====
Currently defined aliases:

2 cast 'cure serious' qigong
1 cast 'summon' qigong
sq cast 'summon' quetzalcoatl
loko look &$
fq follow quetzalcoatl
glow cast 'sanctuary' $&
lac look in $1.corpse
gac get all in $1.corpse
calm cast 'calm'
od open door $1
grec cast 'group recall'
blind cast 'blind' $&
poison cast 'poison' $1
gh cast 'group heal'
wor cast 'word of recall'
gg get all.coins in $1.corpse
drake s*se*ne*se*se*s*se*ne*ne*se*se*sw*sw*s*se*e*se*ne*ne*n*ne*se*s*se*s*se*ne

===Auto-Exits:===

:: Here is an example of the auto-exit display:
The Temple Of Midgaard
You are in the southern end of the temple hall in the Temple of Midgaard.
The temple has been constructed from giant marble blocks, eternal in
appearance, and most of the walls are covered by ancient wall paintings
picturing Gods, Giants and peasants.
Large steps lead down through the grand temple gate, descending the huge
mound upon which the temple is built and ends on the temple square below.
Further, a small spiral staircase leads upwards to the social complex, an
archway leads east and there is a small wooden door to the west.
This room seems to be a focal point for the magics of evil.
This room seems to be a focal point for the magics of good.
This room seems to be a focal point for the magics of neutrality.
