/filter¶
Syntax¶

Description¶
Extends the EverQuest command to allow filtering many types of messages, such as the annoying "You are out of food and drink" alert.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|

| name add/remove text | Sets up custom filters, see examples below. |
Notes¶
Filters added through /filter are excluded from EverQuest's logging (/log) system.
Important: Overly broad filters may capture unintended messages. For example, filtering out A rat will also hide messages containing that exact phrase, such as /con messages.
Examples¶
/filter name add Joe This will add a filter that ignores all lines that start with "Joe"
/filter name add *Joe This will add a filter that ignores all lines that have "Joe" anywhere in them
