hence why u would surround the matchtext with $()


that is, if anything, an example of where you would certainly not want to enclose the matchtext in $(). malformed expression aside, surrounding it with $() will have mIRC attempt to evaluate $)/i as an identifier. without it, mIRC will leave the expression alone and handle all parts of it literally which is, presumably, what we want :P
