Summary0000962: "list_commands" or "listcmds" console comand
DescriptionI would like if there was a console command that would list any (or every) available command so you can look for the command you are looking for on a list then type said command in. You know... for guys that are not literate with lines of code (myself included). Something that should go with that would go with this would be a help command (i.e. [<name of command> help]) which would then give a description of the said command.

PS This feature is available on Doomsday Engine and Risen3d, so you might be able to put this in, you might not.

This is already in. The command is "cmdlist [pattern]" where you can filter the output by commands matching pattern.

Could you give me a few examples on these "patterns", because the console cuts all text off after about 150 lines (I'm assuming, could be less) when using only "cmdlist", meaning I don't see all of the commands even if I use the "clear" command before then. ...Yeah, that's what I should have requested for: The ability to increase or decrease the maximum amount of lines of console text

Woah, this one's new to me. o_O

> Could you give me a few examples on these "patterns"
Seems to be masks, like "vote_*".

> because the console cuts all text off after about 150 line
You can save the output to file: first, do "logfile commands" or whatever arbitrary name you want to give to the log file, then do cmdlist and then do "logfile" without file argument again to stop the logging. This should save the list of commands to your zandronum directory.

If you write a letter and then you press 'TAB', you'll get all the commands which begin with that letter. Isn't it enough?

Not quite. If you're searching for dumpclasses, but you only remember "class," you can type "cmdlist *class*".

Since the needs of the original poster was covered, I'm closing this.

This stuff would have to go through ZDoom first, please suggest it as a feature there.
