Why is it silly? If commas were treated as part of the text how could people use multiple parameters with identifiers (short of making the scripting language use quoted strings and breaking all backwards compatability - now that would be silly)?

Also, brackets aren't needed for mIRC to treat a variable correctly. Brackets are only required when you wish to change the order of evaluation or if you want something to be evaluated more than once.


Spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and stupid comments are intentional.
