Emote on a Quickslot

Drops an emote onto a bar slot. Roleplay kinships build whole bars of these, and it is the most common everyday use of the shortcut command.

Where to paste this

Type /alias add NAME "command" to create a named shortcut for a command.
Run it afterwards by typing /NAME, or place it on a bar.
Use /shortcut <slot> <command> to put a command on a quickslot — slot 61 is the first slot of the second bar.
Quickslots are numbered from 1, running left to right and then down through the bars.
Aliases are per-character and are saved automatically when you log out cleanly.

Alias Your Travel Skills
General
```
/alias add bree /travel Bree-land
/alias add ered /travel Ered Luin
```
Hunters and everyone with a map skill accumulate dozens of travel destinations. An alias per destination is far faster than opening the skill panel every time.
LO
Assist Your Target
General
```
/assist
```
Picks up whatever your target is attacking. Put it on a quickslot and a fellowship can stay on one mob without anyone calling targets aloud.
LO
Create an Alias
General
```
/alias add home /travel Bree
```
Gives a short name to a command you type often. Afterwards, typing /home runs whatever you attached. Aliases are per-character and save automatically when you log out cleanly.
LO
Enter Music Mode
General
```
/music
```
Switches your character into music mode so you can play an instrument. LOTRO has a full ABC notation music system, and this is the first step into it.
LO
Fellowship and Raid Chat
General
```
/f Pulling now
/raid Stack behind the boss
```
Posts to your fellowship with /f or the whole raid with /raid. Raid leaders live in /raid, and knowing the short forms saves a click on every call.
LO
Flag Yourself Looking for Fellowship
General
```
/lff
```
Marks you as available so fellowship finder searches pick you up. Easy to forget you have left it on.
LO
Follow Your Target
General
```
/follow
```
Auto-follows whoever you have selected until you move. Middle-earth is very large and travelling behind someone who knows the route is a real convenience.
LO
List Your Aliases
General
```
/alias list
```
Prints every alias on the current character. The quickest way to work out why a command is doing something unexpected.
