Bind for sending to a channel

I HATE (read as LOATHE) the chat setup for heroes. I want to be able to send to any global channel that i want with a quick press of a button. For example /Send mysg, hey everyone. Everytime I try i get an error back "unknown command send" but I can type directly in the chat window /send mysg, hey everyone and it works fine. what am i missing before i tear my hair out.

command i typed
/bind \ "send Mysg, "

command in chat window i type that works
/send mysg, hey all"

I think what you're looking for is:

/bind \ beginchat /send mysg

Note the space after mysg. This bind puts the /send mysg command in the chat window, and allows you to type your message. Also, if the channel you're sending to has a space in it's name, you need to enclose the channel name in quotes.

/bind key "beginchat /send "channel name" {$name, $level $archetype} "

This will automatically start in the chatline when you hit the designated key (no need to hit "enter" first). The info in the brackets is completely optional (leave them out completely if you like). Just remember to leave a space before the last quotation marks.

Thank you
