Could some1 plz do addon, that translated the shortened instance names, kinda like atlas for instance names.

How it would work is this: some1 shouts : LFG RFD

  • Mod then turns RFK to a link
  • When you click the link, the new screen is opened with : RFD = Razor Fen Downs, barrens (lvl ##-##)

So it kinda makes translations according the shortened names. is this doable? It really does not need hard or even good looking interface, just basics.

camoon guys, any takers? This should not be that big of a challenge, as there are mods allready that seeks set names, like autogratz, that detects if word ding is used and if some1 is using your name or alt to notify you. To make it easy version, you could do word replacing, where shortened names are translated automatically to the chat window, or make it cool, and make links out of em.

This would be tough since not everybody uses the same conventions. For example-most people say SFK for Shadowfang but I've also seen SK. Also, to the horde, DM usually means Dire Maul but to alliance, they use VC for Van Cleef. But they also use DM for Deadmines.
