Synonyms are alternatives for commands entered in Runner. By adding a synonym for a command, any time the player enters one of the alternatives, it will be treated as though it was the original command.

For example, if yopu added a synonym of "put" to be "hang", then every time the player types "hang" it would be treated as though they typed "put". So the command "hang cloak on hook" would execute the put object on object general task as if they had typed "put cloak on hook".

To add a new synonym, right-click on the folder that you want it in and choose "Add New" then "Synonym".

Alternately you can press the IconSynonym.jpg Synonym button on the main toolbar ribbon.

This opens the New Synonym dialog box:

Multiple words to use as synonyms can be entered in the top line by pressing enter after each one, and they can be viewed using the down-arrow button at the end of the line.

The word entered on the bottom line is the one which they will be replaced with.
