Hi,

I just visited addonstudio.org and wondered if you'd ever thought about having an engaging video to explain what you do?

Our prices start from just $195.

Let me know if you're interested in seeing samples of our previous work.

Regards, Joanna

-: Fires the Event [[Events_C_%28Cancel%2C_Character%2C_Chat%2C_Cinematic%2C_Clear%2C_Close%2C_Confirm%2C_Corpse%2C_Craft%2C_Current%2C_Cursor%2C_CVar%29#CHAT_MSG_ADDON|CHAT_MSG_ADDON]]
-: The combined length of message plus prefix can be at most 254 characters.
-: The message will be unaffected by inebriation.
-: (From [[Slouken]])
-: The prefix cannot include a tab character ("\t") as it's used as a delimiter between the prefix and the text when the message is sent from the client.  When the message is recieved by other clients, it's broken back in to two peices in the client and the sent to lua.  Using a tab character in the text may be acceptable, but is unadvised.
-: The actual function name may end up being SendAddOnMessage() to be consistent with existing function names.
-: If you want to send messages inbetween your battleground group you will need to use "BATTLEGROUND" instead of "RAID" or "PARTY".
