[QUESTION] RCON support? #61

Hello! I run my minecraft server on an old laptop and I have RCON enabled on it. I saw this mod when looking if there was a mod that improves the server console. It works great when I ssh to my server and interact with the minecraft console directly, but if I connect through RCON, there is no completion or highlighting. I imagine this is because RCON and the local console work in different ways. I was hoping to see if RCON support was possible to add and if so I wish to be of help in some way. My fear is that RCON just doesn't support anything to with third party mods, it only sends the commands from the remote client and gets the logged output.

I hope some sort of solution can be found, if anything I might have to make a mod to my RCON client itself for syntax highlighting and command completion.

This is indeed how RCON works. It just sends a command and receives text as a response.

Damn, I wish we could have fancy stuff for RCON. I guess that needs to be added to the RCON client itself.

Thank you for your response and the work you do with this mod!
