Forums Feature Suggestions /bset append octlets

It'd be great if /bset had a way to append octlets to the bvar. When working with bvars its common for the scripter to just need to append octlets to the bvar. To do so the scripter has to call $calc(1+ $bvar(&<bvar>,0)). Due to $calc()'s parsing overhead this can bog mIRC down for loops.

I suggest either of the following to alleviate the annoyance:

Using -1 as /bwrite does


A new switch


A new command

For many years I've consistently assumed /bset supported N = -1, for appending to the end of a &binvar, given this is the supported behavior with /bwrite. I hope it can be added
