try seeing the following in the help file:
/help $len (returns the length of the parameter $len(test) returns 4
/help on text
you might need to see /help /while too but not nessecarily
the points can be stored in .ini files
if you choose .ini storage /help /writeini
/help $readini
Or you could store them simply in variables. You can make different variables for each network and/or channel with the use of dynamic variables.
for dynamic variables try /help [ ]
I think these are what you gonna need. If anyone has to suggest more helpfull staff it would be great!!
