web client - multiple command entry

[chrisspanton]

Web client should allow multiple commands to be entered at once either separated through semicolon, or newline (shift-enter).

I think at a least the semicolon option, to match trigger, alias, etc

Another aspect of this feature, is the option or setting to allow text to stay highlighted in the input dialog after you hit enter. That way typing a new command automatically overwrites, but hitting enter again simply executes the last command.

Wouldnt it be better to Heap the commands and require an Enter key approach? Most of the traditional MUD clients allow you to send multiple commands via semi-colon but they are always sent as individual lines.

Are we treating the webpage as the client or simply an interface to the server?

Not sure I follow the nuance of the comment... IMHO we're treating the webpage as a client, it has today and will continue to develop novel features.

Using ; would be in line with how we are using it for alias as well. Good idea. The "web page" is a client. Not necessarily a replacement for hard core MUD clients but more as a super easy versatile, accessibility friendly option. In this day and age, if you can't browse to it, and you need to download and install an odd exe file to get started. I think that's too high a barrier.
