on ^*:action:*:#: {
echo $color(action) $chan $timestamp *** Action:8 $nick $+ $1-
halt
}
}
this is what i currently use to display my action text differently than the standard format
this doesnt change my action text i send so i also make an on input event if $1 is a /me example:
on *:INPUT:*: {
if ($1 == /me) {
echo $color(action) $chan $timestamp *** Action:8 $nick $+ $2-
.ctcp $active ACTION $2-
halt
}
}
i dont think those 2 events are all that hard to script? im not sure what u mean by ugly control codes as i only change the color of the nick making the post ... at any account im sure if those 2 events arnt exactly what your looking for then its atleast gotta do something pretty similar
