I'll be the first to admit that my C is nowhere near up to scratch

I was aware that you could do some manipulation of mIRC with DLLs but didn't think something like this was possible (as in my experience DLLs tend to focus on using hWnd to get stuff done)...

mIRC isn't com enabled which (while a lot of damn useless work) would be nice to play with - calling mIRC functions from script via COM objects could be handy, but also extremely dangerous.

I spose I could do this with IDEmIRC actually...

Isn't there a DLL to simulate keystrokes out there? brb scouting
ah hah. This is perfectly possible with sendkey.dll and the hotlinking.

WIR HABEN EIN SOLUTION!
Hurrah.
