Semicolon?

Does Quest 4.02 allow the use of semi-colons in messages?

I think you can use them directly in a call to msg <...>, but shouldn't use them elsewhere.

What's a "call to msg"? And when you say "I think" do you mean you don't know? If you don't, I'm still waiting for a definite answer from someone. Thanks for responding though.

msg <...;...> worked when I tried it.

When I try 'msg <something;else>' it only prints 'something'.

Well, I did my testing in 3.x; he may have changed it in 4.0.

I think it should work in msg (I'm not at my usual machine so I can't check right now), but I know there's a problem with it in "look" tags which is going to be a bit of a pain to resolve (but it's on my list...)

I was asking for 4.03. I know in 3.53 I ran across problems with it. Text following semi-colon would not be displayed. Since they seem to be more than a hindrance at the moment, I'll just leave them out. Allowing them in the future would be helpful though, for the purpose of correct syntax.
