Hi...
I used a " snippet " to abbreviate the mobs names, players, objects, etc... I followed the intrucoes and I recompiled. During the compilation it appeared the message:
handler.c: In function `isname':
handler.c:87: warning: implicit declaration of function `single_isname'
However, I ignored this mistake and I went to check the result of the alteration, everything works well, less when you try to order a " tell " for a player, if you are not immortal you will have to type the whole name of the player to speak with him. The whole rest of the abbreviations for the mortals works well, less the players' name in the " tell ". For the immortal, it was everything perfect.
If somebody knows how to correct this, all the help are welcome.
Thank you

* (a long sword, a short sword and a tempered sword). If you type "get sword",
* your player will get the first one. With this, you can type "get sword,long"
