Assuming you have your companion set up as a separate location, you'd use the #WITHLOC command.

i read the help files, im not really getting it could you give me an example?

#withloc @companion north if i wanted to move it north or how does that work?

the #LOCATION object should have a name itself, it could be stored in a variable, but doesnt have to be
You just need to make sure your companion is defined with #LOC

#WITHLOC companion north

yes got my mojo workin, this is going to change things, thanks a lot!
one more question, when im following my companion around the map i cant really see anything through its eyes so im running blind.
is there anyway to keep the location at the center of the screen? sometimes when it gets close to the edge i cant see the exits,
and have to use the mouse to move the map screen. would be nice if that were avoidable.

You will have to creatively use the #TRACK command to switch the location-following focus of the mapper. While you can have as many location objects as you want, the mapper can only ever follow one of them at a time.

under the map configurations settings (speedwalking), there is an option to center with each movement
