Forums Scripts & Popups Global variable containing identifier

I've looked around a little bit - and I can't find anywhere explaining how to do this (if at all possible).

If I were to want to change the /msg into a variable containing an identifier how was one to go about doing that? Every I (for good reason) set the identifier in the variable, it doesn't add the identifier, it adds for it stands for. i.e:

on *:JOIN:#: {
set %msg msg $chan /me ||
}

would give a variable of %msg msg #lindenkron /me || --- instead of %msg msg $chan /me || (For usage in multiple channels).

Is there a way to make it save the identifier in the variable as text until it's called? Without having to set multiple variables such as msg.$chan (msg.#lindenkron) etc.

Thanks!
