Maps can be created in minutes and can then be printed out, traded to other Portal© users and used to travel instantly from one room to another! Check out the screenshots page for some samples, then check out Portal© itself to see this beauty in action. It's amazing!

• Command Aliases
  Intelligent word substitution and replacement for single or multiple commands. Use variables and delays for advanced control over your character! You can even have an alias record your every move and play it back whenever you want! Setup the alias "eq" to wear your platemail, gloves, helmet boots and wield your broadsword all in one fell swoop! Use the integrated $ variables to use appended text after aliases. Make an alias "gg" to "give $1 to $2" and then use "gg sword bob" to "give sword to bob" Now how handy is that?

• "Full-Circle" Action Functionality
  Most any action in Portal© can be performed by any other action. Have an event fire an alias or macro, or have a line of quickchars fire off a string of parsed commands. Each action has its own, custom-configured settings to use variables with, use functions with, use nicknames on and much much more. No other client anywhere gives you the command flexibility that Portal© for Windows does!

Once you're done perusing, simply press Escape and the screen returns to normal viewing. Keep up to 10,000 lines in your scrollback buffer and even search for a specific value! Write the scrollback to a file, capture incoming text to a file or even better, select text in either the main screen or scrollback with the mouse and the window will auto-scroll as you move up and down! Also, copying is a breeze with the convenient autocopy feature. Simply select a block of text and it's instantly copied to the clipboard!
  
  
• Floating Screens
  Each screen of the client is a separate window, able to be placed where desired. You can even anchor these screens to the main screen to move as it moves. Each player's complete desktop configuration is saved in their individual profile, then loaded again each login! Don't you wish your car worked like this when your wife leaves the seat shoved way up?
  
  
• Character Security Locking

• Automatic Grammar & Punctuation Correction
  Ever get tired of having to hold down that huge Shift key just to capitalize "I" in a sentence? Or typing that annoying apostrophe in don't or can't? With the Portal© integrated grammar and punctuation correction option enabled, simply type in dont or cant etc. and it'll come across as don't and can't etc. We all know this isn't being lazy, it's being...efficient! Yeah, that's the ticket!
  
  
• One-Touch "Boss" Panic Button
  Press the panic button and "abracadabra!" the entire program morphs into that of an innocent system clock. You can even still control the game while in this mode to quietly close it down even with the boss looking over your shoulder! Number one quote regarding this little gem of a feature: "That is damn slick!"

Well, how would you like to take all those settings you entered into another client and import them directly into the most advanced client in the galaxy? Well, now you can. You can import most every setting from script files directly into Portal©. It sure comes in handy when you've got a few dozen aliases, each with hundreds of commands already typed in, and don't want to enter them in again.
