i want to make an alias..well i think it would be an alias where whenever i type

k *

it sends:

k *
alias 814 k *

* = the variable

my problem is i dont know how to make it so that it reads what the first * is and puts it in for the other things if that makes any sense..

Use %1 to match the first wildcard:


<aliases>
  <alias
   match="k *"
   enabled="y"
   sequence="100"
  >
  <send>k %1
alias 814 k %1</send>
  </alias>
</aliases>
