| It's not exactly clear what you want here, in my book "sent to mud" and "want i want sent" are the same thing.
There are three things that are different here:
- What you type (eg. HP for Heal Please)
- What gets sent to the MUD (eg. gt heal please)
- What you actually see on your screen (eg. heal please in red)
It isn't clear if you want the different colours on your own screen, or for everyone to see.
Assuming you want the others to see it in red so they notice it, you want an alias like this:
Match: HP (Heal please, nice and quick to type)
Send: gt {Rheal please{x
