Hello,

Is there any reason that this bind will work
Quote:
bind pubm -|- "#test !test" test_play

and this bind won't work?
Quote:
bind pubm -|- "#test ~test" test_play


The only difference is the use of the ! char in the bind that will work, as opposed to the use of the ~ char in the bind that won't work.

'~' is a special character in bind masks and matches whitespace(s)

Thanks, I should have woken up to that.
