the alias i have now looks sorta like this:




#alias find {


#temp {(%d) %1} {#echo %1}


}

see, i need the first %1 to be the argument i pass the alias, and the second %1 to be saved portion of the matching pattern from the temp trigger.
so far i can only get %1 to be the argument to the alias.
any advice

#alias find {#exec {%concat("#temp {(%d) ",%1,"} {#echo %","1")}}

Double %'s for the #TEMP. zMUD strips one % each time it interprets the statement, so the first % is for #AL and the second will be for #TEMP.
#alias find {#temp {(%%d) %1} {#echo %%1}}
