   I realize the dependancy MyrroTip_Options hasn't been created yet, but this addon should at least work up to a point, yet when I enter the slash commands, I get not found errors. Also, is there a place to link files so I don't have a ridiculously long post?

   You can post them as http://pastey.net and then link them here.  There are a few things that don't make sense here, in particular your slash command registration:

   You want to create two globals here like so:

   SLASH_MYRROTIP1 = "/myrrotip"

SLASH_MYRROTIP2 = "/myrrt"

   Then you register the slash command handler using the same "tag", i.e.

   SlashCmdList["MYRROTIP"] = function(text) ChatFrame1:AddMessage(tostring(text)) end

   This simple slash command will echo whatever you type after the slash command to the chat window.

   Thank you so much! Not only did you point out my (rather obvious - /facepalm) error, you inspired me to fix other things in this code.

   Many thank yous :-)
