[INACTIVE][CHAT] dotFilter v1.01 - Stop those .typos

dotFilter - Stop those .typos:
Version: v1.01

Update: RegexFilter has replaced dotFilter

This tiny plugin stops you from accidently sending those embarrasing .commands to chat. Instead of announcing to the public that you tried to .give yourself a diamond pickaxe, dotFilter blocks the message and notifies you.

This is a common problem for admins with US keyboard layout, because the "." character is right next to "/". (Scandinavian admins: Look for 7filter)

Features:

• Commands beginning with . are filtered (stopped)
• No configuration
• No permissions
• No commands
• No cake

Version 1.00

• Original release

Version 1.01

• Changed namespace

 

It would be nice if i could use the . instead of / is this possible? Its much "nearer" on my switzerland keyboard...

 

lmao, how many skandanavian admins are there? that cant be a very big market

 

He obviously made it for himself and was nice enough to publish it for anyone else that needed it.

 

Bukkit (or perhaps even minecraft_server for all I know) makes the distinction between commands and chat messages, I don't think it's possible for a plugin to change this. Even if I managed to somehow generate a command from an intercepted chat message, it would probably introduce a lot of weird bugs so I'll leave this to someone more experienced with Java. Sorry.

 

Could you please add - to the filter? Because on my compuer I have to use ctrl+shift once before using comments. Otherwise my computer changes all my /'s to -'s.

(sorry if my English is really bad)

 

LOL it seems this is a much bigger problem than I had anticipated; I never intended for this to be a configurable plugin (less code, less bugs) but I don't want to end up with a whole family of filter plugins either... Can we get an exhaustive list of characters that people in different corners of the world keep hitting instead of that cumbersome "/"? Are we limited to ordinary ASCII here or would I have to support weird unicode sequences in the config?

Oops! Fixed.

 

please update your OP to reflect the standards http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/plugin-release-submission-guidelines.1755/

 

Picky, picky.

 

Thanks for your Answer, i thought something like this :/

 

The file wasn't found on the server.

 

*facepalm* try it again now... :-P

 

Looks awesome! But where's the cake?

 

Awesome, but.... damn, i couldve used some cake..

 

It annoys me when im just trying to "..." , that it blocks it. I think what i mess up most on is forgetting the "/" .

 

Tiny but critical update posted: v1.01
The only thing changed is the namespace, this is an update required for newer versions of Craftbukkit. Sorry.

This plugin will not be maintained further, consider switching to RegexFilter instead
