Username replacement - Amadeus - 2008-05-24

I am a member at a multitude of discussion boards, and one of them being vBulletin.

There is a code that I saw, called 'You replacement'. Basically, when a user makes a post, and types in the bbcode "[you]", it replaces that code with the username of the person viewing it.

I was just wondering if there was anything of that effect made for mybb. If not, then I do have a copy of the xml code, and was wondering if it could be ported to mybb.

This is the vB code. I'm not sure how the coding for mybb works, or else I would have done it myself.

If anybody can help me out with this, it would be greatly appreciated.
