rcon /tell patch
Here is a patch to implement rcon /tell (was ported from Smokin' Guns).
This is particularly useful for third-party administration tools such as Big Brother Bot (to name one) to talk to a specific player instead of spamming the entire server. I would say that it's even necessary to allow a normal usage of these tools.
Rcon /say is already implemented, so I think that rcon /tell was just missed by ID Softwares at the time.
The patch attached here is a port from Smokin' Guns to OpenArena, but it is so straightforward that I think it's unnecessary to make a new diff against ioquake3.
