Yes, even more useful though is to use an addon that has the ability to run code from within the game. Examples:

Click4Info This addon allows you to
  • Type whatever code you want just like in a lua file & run it from within the game.
  • Allows you to save/reload the code you write.
  • Search for global functions you can use in your code (sort of like looking at the API page on the wiki, but it does not show parameters or returns)
  • Search for constants by name -- For example your trying to figure out what kinds of ITEMTYPEs there are or what values they represent you can search for ITEMTYPE and it will show you all constants with that text in them & their values (if you turn on show values).
  • Search for Constants by value -- For example if your debugging some returned ITEMTYPE and your debug code says its the value 4, you can search for the value 4 and it will give you a list of all constants with a value of 4 then you can just look for which one is an ITEMTYPE and you know which ITEMTYPE it returned.
  • Save slash commands (with a favorites list) and run them at the click of a button. -- Saving slash commands is very useful for /zgoo xxxxx (or any) slash commands you use often or just to save it as a reference to objects you don't want to forget about that you may need later.
