Code: On :Text::*: { if (!$window(@msg)) { window -l +lC @msg } aline @msg $timestamp $+(<,$nick,>) $1- } I'm quite confused as to what you meant. Could you explain a little more to this newbie? :tongue:

Code: On :Text::#: { if (!$window(@window)) { window -l +lC @window } aline @window $timestamp $+(<,$nick,>) $1- } If you don't want it to show the nickname sending the message remove $+(<,$nick,>). Hope this helps. -Andy.

Code: alias emsg { if (!$window(@window)) { window -l +lC @window } set -u1 %msg $1- aline @window $timestamp $+(<,$nick,>) %msg } On :Text::*: { set -u1 %msg $1- emsg } In every on Text event all you'd need to add is: set -u1 %msg $1- emsg I hope I understood sufficiently. -Andy.

DaveC D	No start event is needed, you can simply call and alias in replace of hardcoding the window name in, this allows the window to be created if it doesnt exist, before its alined to. Or any things else etc. Code: ; ;Usage ;(1) /window.name -- this well create the window if it doesnt exist ;(2) $window.name -- this well return with the name of the window, and well create it if it doesnt exist ;(3) $window.name(only) -- this well return with the name of the window ; alias window.name { var %temp = @window if (!$window(%temp) && $1- != only ) { window -l +lC %temp } return %temp } examples of use aline $window.name $timestamp $1- aline $window.name $timestamp -- user has left --- ;^ makes the window if it doesnt exist and displays said text echo number of lines in $window.name is $line($window.name,0) ;^ returns the window name (both examples) if it didnt exist its created if (window($window.name(only))) echo $window.name(only) does not exist. ;^ returns the window name (both examples) but does NOT create the window if it doesnt exist

DaveC D	You didnt follow my examples did you re: (%window.name) Unknown command I never said %window.name i said $window.name $window.name runs the alias with this name, returning the contents the alias sets in the /RETURN command, the same as say $time returns sa "12:34:56", $window.name returns "@window" but also creates the window unless you use $window.name(only) in which case it only returns the "@window"
