Raid target icon with Print?

[vbaspcppguy]

I've got this addon printing raid target icons to chat with {rt1} ect, but how do I get them to show up when just printing to the console and not sending to chat?

Any help would be appreciated.

You need to use the texture escape sequence.

Example:

print("|TInterface\\TargetingFrame\\UI-RaidTargetingIcon_8|t");

This will print the skull raid mark in the chat frame.

More info on WoWWiki: UI Escape Sequences.
Note: The raid icon links, like the one you posted only work when sending as a chat message, you need to use this texture path to access the raid markers.
