Just got the AMIP plugin for winamp that allows you to have irc integration via $dde calls. I made an alias

/playing say $dde(mplug,format,"Now_Playing:_%no)"

Which would output: <Techwid`> Now Playing: Artist - Song

This works fine, but I want to add colors to it. However if you add a comma into it for background colors dde complains about insuffcient parameters

Example:
$dde(mplug,format,"?14,1Now_Playing:_%no")

I tried doing the \ and / to tell mirc to ignore the comma and just output it to screen (like in c++) but that didn't work. So my question is, what character tells mirc to ignore the value of a character and just output it to the screen ?

I also played around with the /dde way of doing dde calls, but I don't think its possible to execute a say that way. So any help on how to do that would be appreciated thanks!
