Slightly confusing command format #2224

Open nus-pe-bot opened 3 years ago

nus-pe-bot commented 3 years ago

It is a slightly confusing design choice to put the command prefix after the slash since a user can confuse the prefix letter as part of the parameter, especially when the parameter is separated by spaces. This is merely a cosmetic issue.

This is our design decision considering how chatbots, for example Telegram bots, require / before the command, which is more intuitive than having the / after the prefix. Similarly, flags in command line usually have the special character -- before the flag.
