Maybe I'm missing something, but shouldn't it be "connecting" ? As a side note, in the help file for ON LOGON the "format" and "example" line at the top omit the :target: parameter, but it is in the examples below that.

However, it would be more useful to me if $status reported whether you are "logged in successfully" or not, or better, have another identifier that does it. I know, one could use on CONNECT and set a variable, but an identifier is cleaner. /.timerQ 1 0 echo /.timerQ 1 0 $timer(Q).com
