Greetings
Does anyone know if there is a way to save text from the communications window? Like cut and paste
to Windows Notebook? Or any other way will do !
Thanks in Advance

The only way I know is to cut and paste from the log files. They are written continuously, so if you need some recent text, just be sure that this message category is logged and reopen the log file in an editor.
I know of users who have written text filters for Linux that monitor the log files, color code the message categories and display them in many different ways. You could e.g. display each message category (main chat, guild chat, group chat, tells etc.) in different windows or however you like.
I use extracts from the logfiles typically to document the quests I have finished.

Copying text out of the chat window may be possible soon(tm).

Thank you all for your replys
I like the idea that we may soon be able to cut and paste from the communications window. Helpful for
documentation of incidents and to save quest info. I also like the idea submitted by Garbald, write scripts
to extract the info from the logfiles. Windows users should be able to do this with VBScript or Perl.
Good Luck in your Travels !
