I tried to use the search feature and can't find a thread on this, and if there is one, it's possibly old enough to be lost in the noise of other posts.

Right now, mirc will indicate when you use a color code, bold, reverse and strip codes. As for italics and underlining, it just inserts a space... sometimes. I often find myself guessing if I've properly underlined something, and am unable to determine it unless I hit enter to post it.

This is whether it be for a script or for just chatting. I guess overall I'd like a uniform setup for the codes so that I know they're working properly, instead of wishing for the best of luck.

This is especially annoying if you're trying to edit a topic, since it definitely doesn't insert a space when you're in the channel manager dialog window.

Also, it seems the symbols that DO pop up for bold and color changing have weird spacing issues. Is there a possible fix to that?
