When trying to use buffer commands such as /s and /c and /l and /d and /g and you get the picture.. I get an error.. ALL the time. And being the Admin means I need the buffers..

Error number: -2146828275
Event: Execution of line 1 column 1
Description: Type mismatch: 's'
Called by: Immediate execution

How do I fix this?

Honestly.. I need these functions to work.. I need to be able to save my buffers when I am done writing to them.. Or to delete lines from it. I need these.. And yet MUSHClient gives me that error.. Can't I turn that off???

Yes you can change that. The "/" character is the default "inline scripting" character, so you can type something like this:


/world.setstatus "my status line"


To avoid this problem with your buffers, go into world configuration -> Scripting -> Scripts, and change the "Script prefix" to something else. For example, "////" or something you won't want to type.
