starbucks_mafia said he didn't like people using $() outside of the matchtext field, not inside it.
Please stop filling the forums with worthless responses to posts you don't comprehend.
I guess you found out I misread his text as to not using the $() in general (everywhere). Since I was taught in Efnet #mIRC that $() is to $eval() as $r() is to $rand()... and I assumed that $() is the only identifier in the matchtext, then I felt it did have it's purpose for that.

Looks like the topic is now shifted to not using identifiers not documented in the mIRC help file.
Not sure what to think about that - either way I will still use $pi even though it is not in the help file. (Even as opposed to making my own 1.)
