Repeating chat text

[liveevil2000]

Is there a way to repeat text in chat without having to type over again. 
for example. 
no having to type “gather for heal” over and over or “forming team for TF”, etc…

Enter>up arrow

 

This will default to the last thing typed.

Thank you. 
I remember on live there was a way to do it but couldn’t figure it out here. 
 

thanks again!

you could also use the /bind function

 

(but don't ask me what you need to do... I can't remember)

People like Oklahoman and other great leaders (yeah, i compliment where it is deserved.  sue me.) use macros to paste text walls.  Some intrepid players even macro a power and a text file (pretty sure) for things like TP teammate.  That is all I know

Yes you can do that and even implement a rolling bind file to change the text with each click. I did that for my 1st Tank back in 2004 having 100 taunt files that it would cycle through while using taunt. However that got old fast as I use taunt a lot on a tank.

 

In PvP I would use targeting macros to call the name of a spike target out in chat while saying it on comms, It was handy if in a zone league group and I was calling targets and randos in the league didn't have access to our comms. But that was a lot of work as I made a macro each enemy in zone.

Just note if you log into a different character, this still works. This is why it is so easy to check the AH between characters.
