For triggers and aliases we have a bunch of options, for example for omitting what is sent from the output, but the options are far fewer when it comes to timers. Wouldn't it be a good idea to have at least an omit from output in timers to avoid the world showing new activity every time a timer fires?
Omit from output for Timers?

The "new activity" should only appear when MUD output arrives, but I agree, you could have an option to not show the timer output.
However what you can do right now is do this:
Send: SendNoEcho "look"
Send To: Script
This will send "look" to the MUSH without echoing it on the screen.

Odd. I definitely get new activity with just echoed input and no output, for example when using PennMUSHes IDLE command which returns nothing.
Timer options "omit from output" and "omit from log" have been added to version 3.50, as requested.
