Forums mIRC Help Two questions - auto join channel and psyBNC chat

I have no idea how messages are created. It looks like a chat window to me (because it appears to act like a chat window). In the title of it, it says: -PsyBNC (psyBNC@psyBNC.at)

I opened the mIRC Scripts Editor, clicked the "Remote" tab (remote.ini) and first tried it with: ON *:TEXT:*:?:{ if ($nick == -psyBNC) .timer 1 0 window -g0 -psyBNC }
This worked only with the icon in the switchbar which indeed stopped flashing. But if I was using another program and mIRC was in the background (not focused), the miRC taskbar icon or tray icon (if minimized) were still flashing when the -PsyBNC "chat" window was updated with a "message".

So I then pasted in the other 6 line part of code and while I have no clue what it does (can't read / understand the code), it seems to work and does what I wanted: when -PsyBNC chat window gets updated, mIRC taskbar / tray icon doesn't flash anymore. So, great. I just hope there are no side-effects.

Thank you maroon!

Khaled, I disagree with your "you would not want a channel window to suddenly open up while you are typing in another window" assertion. The majority of the time the user is not typing. While I was using the old mIRC version I was happy with it opening the channel window for me on auto-join. I only came here asking about it because I kept missing the auto-joined windows since they were silently hidden in the switchbar and I never noticed it since I installed the new mIRC. That to me was a bigger problem within a day of using the new mIRC compared to auto-opening the channel window in old mIRC for years. I guess it can be solved with that piece of script code but it could also be added as a settings option.
