Is there a way to replace a certain word with another word in ALL of your triggers? For example, if there was a "slash" command in the game, and I had a LOT of triggers and aliases with the slash command in them, and then the administrators changed the slash command to "hack"..would I be able to change all the "slash" commands into "hack" commands without having to edit every single setting? If this isn't possible, maybe I could suggest it?

This depends entirely on how exactly you wrote the triggers. If slash and hack were part of a common variable portion of text and you had that portion kept in a variable, then you'd need only edit the variable and everything using that variable would be updated.

If all you are worried about are slash commands sent to the mud, perhaps you can use a trigger that subs hack for slash:

#trigger {slash} {#sub {hack}}

You can also export all of your settings to a text file, use a text editor to do a global search and replace on the text and the reimport the settings back.
