Re: Lower case?

Fiddlesticks.  I know this issue has come up before, but I can't remember 
what we said.

You could definitely create a variable, run the #math command (which seems 
weird, but all it does is a Python eval) on it, and then use that for 
wave.  Something like this (and my Lyntin macro stuff is really rusty):

#action {^%1 waves at you.} {#math {wavetarget} {"%1".lower()};wave 
$wavetarget}

Or something along those lines.

Another possibility is to write a command that handles the lower casing. 
That would be more portable in the long run should:

   1) another version of Lyntin come out, and
   2) it has a different implementation of #math

Hope that helps--
