WC3 Code Paste Helper

This small script helps you to paste Lua code from your editor to Eikonium's Lua Debug Console for execution. This console can accept multi-line input of code when you prepend it with >.

All you have to do:

1. Copy code in editor
2. Go to game and press CTRL+B to paste it as multi-line code

For example, copy this code:

x = 19
y = 2
print("x + y = ".. x + y)

will be pasted in game chat like this to be executed:

>x = 19
>y = 2
print("x + y = ".. x + y)

• Probably many false-positives by anti-virus software (complain to them about it)
  • Why? AutoIt was used by scriptkiddies in the past, but it doesn't excuse a blanket ban that flags ALL au3 scripts as malware.
