On that note...

The code for cycling through targets did not exist in any client prior to 2004. Please stop using "I read it in a Usenet group" or "it was bound to tab". It's fake news. The only thing bound to tab was cycle between self and target.
I posted elsewhere but it got lost in the shuffle, but when did names start to "blink" once targeted? I noticed the other day they didn't do that in the old Tutorial, and most probably did not do that in the EQ beta either since the Tutorial.exe was based on that very old code. I have no personal recollection as to when that particular feature was added, but thinking about it....I remember it being really hard to tell what I had targeted if I pulled several things that had the same name. No recollection at all when it changed.

Names DO blink on the standard version of the Trilogy client so it was added early (again the tutorial is a separate .exe) I just don't remember whether it was a beta or an early-launch addition. I am NOT suggesting this for P1999--merely asking for the sake of trivia.
