Using 6.03, I am trying to make mIRC ignore the command PART from a server. I want to actually leave the channel, but to leave the window open (with the log of what happened previously). The end result from a PART would be the same as if I were banned, and "Keep channels open" is checked in the IRC options. All of this would happen unless I had clicked the X in the corner, or typed a specialized command.

Now, I tried the following: to see if I could keep the window open, but it didn't, so it is possible it won't work for me, but it sure would be nice to leave the window open for log purposes

Look in options..
[+]IRC
[ ] Leave Channels Open

near bottom, left column

I have that checked, but it seems to only work when you are kicked, not when the server issues the PART command. I am trying to duplicate this feature for other purpose as well.

try this..

Nope, no go, my debug log shows me as getting the PART command, but my window still closes


[edit]And I should say that I can still get the on part script to work for other things, like echoing to the system window, so it just seems that mIRC is ignoring the halt on part[/edit]

Halting the on PART event apparently has no effect.

Can you intercept it with a raw event?

No, because it isn't a numeric reply. My first attempt to halt that event was in order to prevent mIRC from sending its /part command whenever the user clicks on the [x] button, with no luck.

you would think you could.. (Straight from help:)



that to me would imply things such as PRIVMSG, *part*, amoung others.

Raw Events

The raw event allows you to process numeric server messages that are identified only by a number, and non-numeric server messages which mIRC doesn't recognize internally.

mIRC recognizes PART

bah, showoff >:\ Well, we should be able to enterpret our own raws. Can u say Feature Suggestion?

I think yes to a Feature Suggextion, that there be a switch for /part to leave the window open.
