Custom Commands ^C^C-ENTITYGROUP;New;*;;;

Hi, 

i'm currently using a custom command to truncate the clunky group gui, but am having trouble getting it to accept the asterix as a group name when it is run from a button.

basically it should create an un-named group (actually names it A then a number, example: A1,A2) and add the pre-selected entities to that group. 

^C^C-ENTITYGROUP;New;*;;;

 

what i get is this:

: -ENTITYGROUP

Default: NewOptions: ? to list, Add entities, Explode, New, Order, REMove entities, REName or SElectionsetSpecify option» _New

Options: ? to list or

Specify egroup» * 

«Invalid»

Options: ? to list or

Specify egroup»

Default: No

Confirm:Redefine it?

Specify Yes or No»

Notice it gives me extra options to redefine the group, but when i type out the command and go through step by step it takes the asterix as a group name fine and doesn't ask me to redefine it.

 

: -entitygroup

Default: NewOptions: ? to list, Add entities, Explode, New, Order, REMove entities, REName or SElectionsetSpecify option» new

Options: ? to list or

Specify egroup» *

Options: Enter to continue or

Specify description»

5 found, 1 egroup, 5 total

 

Any ideas as to what's going on or Help Will Be Appreciated. :)

 

Cheers,
