On a server, I do not have operator status. However, I do have permission to use the Bukkit Essentials ("essentials.*"), so I can give myself stuff and change gamemode.
Creative search is too slow for me, and using NEI is way better. Is there a way to bypass this issue? I was thinking of configuring it to use "/give 4" when I click on cobblestone, so I can get that in my inventory without using creative inventory search.
I haven't really ever done anything with NEI settings; it's all very confusing. But, I do see in Options > Commands that there is "Item /give {0} {1} {2} {3} {4}", so I assume this is possible.
