9 November 2016

Release 9.143 - replying now requires just the dialog UUID and either index or label or both can be specified. The command now requires the action parameter to be set to either reply, ignore or purge.

Release 9.117 - the index parameter is now optional.

17 June 2016

Release 9.91 - added the ability to ignore a dialog.

21 December 2014

Notes

To reply to a dialog, you need the dialog UUID - this dialog UUID can be either received asynchronously by binding to the dialog notification, or synchronously retrieved by polling the currently tracked dialogs using the getscriptdialogs command.
When replying to a dialog with action set to reply, if you specify just button, then the command may be ambigous in case the dialog has two or more buttons with the same label. In order to avoid the ambiguity, pass index instead which will make it clear which button Corrade should press. To make the command stronger, pass both button and index, in which case Corrade will preform an extra check to see whether the label passed to button is at the specified index.
