Forums Scripts & Popups 1 script problem

i have this in aliases:

sc {
/set %chanscan $$?="Enter channel to scan (#mirc or &mirc):"
if (%hash isincs %chanscan) || (%and isincs %chanscan) {do stuff }
else { .echo -a You must specify channel type (# or &) | halt }
}

thing is that i whant to do that on input script to check
is there #channel given or &channel but not just "channel"

and it works ok, BUT when i input channel# or channel&, chan#nel or ch&annel (you got the point)
it will start "scanning" because it found & and # character in input and i wont to give blokade for it

i tried with !isincs (an i changet the code offcourse)
and i always got that /echo

now since there are some that think that "scan option" is not appropriate and they wont help...

well, it itsnt something illegal or something for using as "attack", and since i dont brake any rules on network with it, dunno what is so bad in this...

so if someone would help me i would apreciate it.

Try that (didnt test it) but i think its write
iswm wildcard string v1 matches string v2
you might even getaway with
if (#* iswm %chanscan) || (&* iswm %chanscan) {do stuff }
actually

thank you so much !!!

edit: btw is there more channel types beside # and & ??

Depends on the network, you can look at the value $chantypes returns to determine this

yes, i know it can bee sen from CHANTYPES in raw004 or 5
but i am asking if anyone encountered another types beside # and & coz i havent... ?
