Alphabetize the Alias Keywords?
« on: December 01, 2017, 03:11 PM »
Is there a way to alphabetize my list of alias keywords? My list is getting fairly long, making it difficult to determine if a particular keyword is already in use. Thank you.

Yeah I can see why that might happen.

There's currently no way to do what you want, though you can drag and drop to re-arrange them.

Let me put it on my todo list.

My filter_alias helper script from last year can help with this. See here https://www.donation...ndex.php?topic=43223

The scripts adds a ctrl+space hotkey when the FARR options window with the alias list is active. The hotkeys shows a filterbox. Type e.g. "ff" to filter to only aliases with text that contain "ff".
