Escape Sequence

[grOOvy]

Hey, just a quick question, tried searching and couldn't find anything on this....

I want to bind the letter "n" to change my esf name to "|::Z::| grOOvy {ape}".... so I would use the console command:
bind n "name "|::Z::| grOOvy {ape}""

Now the first red " will be recognized as the end of the quote and all the bind will do is display name as it will only bind "name " for 'n'. Since my name has spaces, I need to use another set of "" inside the "" for the bind. So to avoid the console misunderstanding the red ", is there an escape sequence which will allow me to bypass that? Any help would be appreciated... thnx!

Escape Sequence examples = %d, \n, \t (in c++)

[p.s. - if there is a list to all the escape sequences for the half life/mods console, could someone please either list them or provide the url to the page where I can find this... thnx again!]

erm lost soul I noticed you've just been going around and posting whatever comes to your mind without actually realizing whether it is spam or not...... please think before posting and read your own post - does it help me in any way? just a request....

Now the answer to your post:
COUNTER STRIKE:
What is it? MOD TO HALF LIFE
Do I play it? NO
Should I ask in their forums? NO

ESF:
What is it? MOD TO HALF LIFE
Do I play it? YES
Should I ask in their forums? YES

Makes sense doesn't it, lost soul?


If anyone else can help me (i mean actually help), I would be grateful if you could post a reply here, thnx!

try removing the quotes around the name command,then post what happens

 

[grOOvy]

then it only recognizes the | and my name is turned to "|", that's it.

Well i dunno if it´s right but if you remove th "´s it should work
If it´s not working try to bind it in the config file

btw you can´t add spaces when you´re changing youre name in the console
(i hope i helped you!)
