Ok, so MikeChat has helped me a lot making this script
which automatically refreshes the channel list window
randomly every few seconds. It is very cool, but I have
one little problem that I can't figure out and no one else
seems to know either :S.
I thought I'd make a new topic for it since the other topic
isn't even visible in the list for the forum anymore (I
looked, yup!).
Here is the code for the script, the problem is below, afterwards:
;;;; chanlist
#chanlist on
raw 321:*:{
window -hn "Channels list"
if ($appactive == $true) {
if ($window(%active).type == channel) { window -a %active }
}
;;; only sets focus if a channel window was $active
window -hls @chanlist1
window @chanlist 0 200
}
raw 322:*:{
aline @chanlist1 $right(... $+ $3,4) - $2 - $4-
halt
}
raw 323:*:{
set %showtime $ctime
;;; settup to show the delay, remove if you dont want this (as well as the line below that has $duration in it)
write -c @chanlist.txt
savebuf @chanlist1 @chanlist.txt
clear @chanlist1
reversesort
.timerrelist 1 $r(377,1233) chanrelist
}
alias chanrelist {
echo -s $duration($calc($ctime - %showtime))
;;;; this shows what the delay was in status, remove this with the settup above if you dont want to see the delay
set %active $active
clear @chanlist
list
}
alias reversesort {
var %clistlines = $lines(@chanlist.txt)
while (%clistlines) {
aline @chanlist $read -l $+ %clistlines @chanlist.txt
dec %clistlines
}
sline @chanlist 8
}
;;;;;;
#chanlist end
The problem is it flashes mIRC's window every time
the /list updates itself.
I like mirc flashing when new text is in the channel
I am in etc, that is what I have it set to do and I like
that, but it's a bit confusing now it flashes too when
the list updates, giving me a "false alarm" thinking
people are talking when they're not
Is there any way to make it not flash mIRC's taskbar
button/icon when the script updates the list? Any help
would be greatly appreciated
