just updated to the beta 6.53 and had to re-create my mud-file and now it won't work :(

#var test {e;n}
#exec @test

result:
e;n

if I write e;n on the command line it sends like should on different lines
e
n

Instead of using #exec, have you tried using #SENDP?

So,
#var test {e;n}
#sendp @test

I think that should work.


Wrong train of thought.

I tried a few things and then it hit me that #exec -should- do what you are trying to get it to do. Even with an alias invoking the variable won't do that, either.

This has already been reported on the BETA forum and is being discussed there.

#exec @test worked in 6.40 and #send&#sendprompt only send the same text e;n
for some reason it just won't split to lines anymore, I guess I have some setting somewhere wrong

#alias test {e;n} works as it should

Strange and unusual behavior is to be expected from beta programs. That's why there's a forum dedicated to discussing them.

What you've encountered might be a bug. Then again, Zugg might have considered the previous behavior to be a bug, so it might be a bugfix. In either case, this board is not the appropriate place to discuss it. The beta forum is. If you don't have access, APPLY. It should take you less than a minute.
