There will have to be some kind of if statement to determine the state of that switch...
A single /if statement is completely unnoticeable (Speed-wise) by todays standards.
I think he means a special way (some strange characters or so) to prevent "item : price" showing up like "item :tongue:rice", or reducing the likelihood of such occurrences.
There's no need for that, most people that use smileys learn how to type out each smiley (Eg: :tongue: is : p), so they'll know item :tongue:rice is item: price anyway.
A channel window is not a picwin in mIRC 6.16, not because Khaled actively refuses us the possibility to draw lines all over our backlog, but because it's a lot easier and faster to code and to execute that code. Scrolling back in some channels where people drown their messages in color codes is already slow on my computer, I'm afraid graphics will not improve that.
So you would be one of the people that don't have smiley support turned on.
