I use
:charname: do whatever
to be able to make my alt do things without me interfering.

Now, I have a 8 variables named char1, char2 up to char8 (not made into a variable, because that'd be ickier to change without having to go into settings).
So, when I wanted @char2 to do whatever, I spent some time thinking and found this solution to the problem:
:<@char2>: do whatever
Now I want a trigger to make them all do an action. How many I have logged varies (put in @shownalts), anything from 1 to 8, but if I use the alias I wont want char1 to do it, but char2 up to how many I got, so sometimes only char2.

Using @i as a variable, I could do this something like this:
i = 2
#while (@i < @shownalts+1) {
:<@char<@i>>: @action @tar
#add i 1
}

with the action kill and tar mob, I would want it to send
:(char2's name): kill mob
and so on with the other chars, depending on how many I got

However, :<@char<@i>>: doesn't work :P
There weren't much discussion on :<@variable>: stuff at all, so I wasn't surprised when I couldn't find my solution in previous posts.

This does what I want, but is ugly:

#if {@shownalts >= 2} {
:@char2: @action @tar
#if {@shownalts >= 3} {
:@char3: @action @tar
#if {@shownalts >= 4} {
:@char4: @action @tar
#if {@shownalts >= 5} {
:@char5: @action @tar
#if {@shownalts >= 6} {
:@char6: @action @tar
#if {@shownalts >= 7} {
:@char7: @action @tar
#if {@shownalts == 8} {:@char8: @action @tar}
}
}
}
}
}
}

Try it with braces:

@{char@i}
