Selecting lots of items (31.12)
« on: September 15, 2010, 07:11:04 pm »

What do I have to change in my init folder to be able to just hold the down arrow and Enter key and select everything in, say, the trade window?

I do not think you can.

Or maybe there's a god who's just completely insane and sends you to Detroit, Michigan in a new body if you ever utter the name "Pat Sajak".

I don't mean all at once, I mean so the command repeats after a second without needing another keypress. One of Mayday's prepackaged versions came with that enabled and I don't know what I need to change to do it.

In the init, change this;

Code: [Select]
[KEY_REPEAT_MS:150]
And make the number smaller.

you can try using the macro system. you can basically use it to record a series of button presses and play them back by pressing ctrl-p. to start recording you press ctrl-r then enter the stuff you want done then press ctrl-r again. you can also save the macros you make by pressing ctrl-s, ctrl-l lets you load a saved macro.
For trading i usually just record a simple down-enter macro and then hold down ctrl-p untill i have what i want selected.
