Sweet as, I have a couple of new modules in mind to bring 0.5 up to the full functionality of 0.4, so you'll probably be hearing from me soon.

This Jamba addon seems wonderful, and if I soon start playing 5 toons I can really see it will be able to make many things much easier. Are there any risks, is it 100% legal and not interfering in any way with Blizzard rules?

There has been a bit of debate about this is the past, you can search the forums if you are interested.

My humble opinion:

It's all good. Addons can only run code that Blizzard allows. Have fun!

How do I send chat snippets? I have tested but it only sends my command, not the actual text.
If I have a snippet called mb do I only write !mb in my whisper to send it, or am I missing something here? When doing this my receiver only get !mb as a whisper...

Hmmm, the way I originally built chat snippets was that they only worked when you replied to a slave toon that someone else had whispered, which was just plain lame!

After reading your question and seeing how limiting the functionality was, I changed it so that what you are trying to do will work. You will need Jamba 0.5f which has just been released. You will have to go into the Jamba-Talk settings and check the "Enable Chat Snippets" box.

Now typing /w toon !mb will send your chat snippet text. The snippet command will only work on its own; i.e. trying to send "blah blah !mb blah blah" will not work. You need to send "!mb" only.

Please let me know if this works for you!

Cheers,
Jafula.

Fanastic, now it works great! Thanks!
This addon is fantastic, I just sent you a donation. Keep up the great work.

Another question/improvement.
Any chance you can allow pets to also be shown in the Jamba team list, and an option to remove the standard party portraits so only the Jamba team list can be used instead?

I don't play a pet class, so I have never had the need. I've put your request on the list of things to do here:

I don't know how to remove the party portraits (I'm sure there is a way). I'm trying to make sure Jamba doesn't become a party portrait addon, because that is a lot of work and there are plenty of good addons out there already that do a great job.

Something I would like to do is integrate Jamba into PitBull or XPerl. Feehza has posted some code which you can use to setup a custom group in Pitbull here:

I think, if I was going to spend time on portraits, it would be doing more integration...
