/who target

With recoding of my hot buttons, this coding to identify playing characters
got lost and I am unable to recreate coding that works. I have tried /who
target, /w target, /who %t, /w %t. All get the result that the name is
not in the zone, when obviously they are right in front of me targeted.
What is wrong?

Interestingly, you have tried every combination except the correct one. =)

/whotarget

And with the command of /whot one starts questioning whether or not there's
any point in making a hotkey for it.

Hey, I use /whot all the time. Whenever I join a party, I make a point to
/whot everyone in the party so I can find out what class they are and what
healing they'll need. Also, when I sit in front of the bank in PoK and give
out free buffs (refusing donations), I do a quick /whot to see what level
buff to give them - Temp or Virt (or the permutations in between).

Plus it's just convenient, a quick way to get information about someone.
Especially since I have /shownames 1, which hides guild affiliation, too.

Given how often I do this, I have hotkey 0 on most of my hotkey banks set to
/whot. Easier to hit one key then to go to the command line and type five
keys.

Though Faned mentioned the /whot command I too have noticed this
problem. The char stands right in front of me and EQ can't seem to find
it with /w or /whot. I don't know what causes this but it's annyoing. :/

You have someone targeted and /whot doesn't work? I think I've seen that
before...I think it happens if their name is too close to either a system
name (such as a race) or too close to a guild name. Then you have to do a
/who all on that person. (or a shortcut is "/ all")

In addition to all you said - there is right mouse click - "who" - menu
option.
