Command Creation

Hello.

I am relatively new to Minecraft Modding and have watched 46 Java tutorials already and read a few as well. Not to mention the other 30 something videos I watched for Minecraft Modding. In an effort to further my understanding I wanted to create a Mod that added a wide range of commands, and as i learn i'll let them yield things. I have about 28 command classes already made and they all implement the ICommand interface, but I had questions on how to improve them.

#1. If i have a command that is /home and another that is /home 1 the game will only let me execute the /home, not the /home 1.

#2. How can command creation be more efficient? I see lots of people use CommandMapper, CommandBase, CommandWrapper classes.

#3. How can I color the message or text that is being printed to the user when they enter a command?

#4. How can I add permission nodes to each command?

Additionally I wanted to keep each Command's class simple with relatively 10-15 lines of code depending on what they have to yield. This is why I wanted to create some sort of CommandHandler or CommandManager that acts like an interface or annotation. That way I could just create a new command class and do @ Command { name, alias, usage, message} to create a command. This helps because instead of having to fill out the "template" from iCommand, i can do it in far less lines.

Many thanks in advance.
