Item linking

Post by wilso132 » Fri Dec 26, 2003 1:43 am

I'm going to go ahead and assume that there's no way you can automatically link an item to say your /auction chat... but is there any way to put one in?

The reason I ask is that I just got done making an automated /auc bot for a friend of mine, but he'd really like for it to be linked instead of just /auc'ing the names of the items. Is there any way I can use the .ini items database to send the link???

Looking at this macro, it still isn't what I need. I need something that's going to do it fully automated... fully.

Right now I have it set up where you type in the parameters like this:

/macro [Minutes between /auc] [Slot to /auc] [Slot to /auc] etc....
e.g. /macro 5 1 2 3 5 Would /auc the contents of bag's 1, 2, 3, and 5 every 5 minutes.

Is there any way I could make it automatically get the the link? I know I could do a /mouseto to different slots in the inventory and pull up the item info, but is there any way to get it to then send the link to the /auc window (by left clicking on the icon in the item info)? I don't want to have to assign /click to a certain position for the item window, seeing as how I'd like to make this a public release...

Any ideas?
