Event trigger for "Unable to connect" in DCC Chat #106742 03/01/05 02:02 PM

There seems to be a trigger for DCC file sending/receving (ON FILESENT/FILERCVD/SENDFAIL/GETFAIL) but not for DCC Chats. Any ideas to implement this, please? Thanks in advance.

After years of helping with mIRC on Undernet I pretty much know the contents of the help file and the available triggers I was thinking about monitoring the status of the TCP socket used by mIRC to initiate the DCC Chat...
