I've run down a list of commands all over the place but can't find what i'm looking for. I need a command that will send a message to a certain user, but it has to go to the user in the main window...Say i'm in channel #blegh...I want the message sent to user B and have him (and only him) see it in channel #blegh...

Is there any way to do it, I've tried every messaging command out there frown
Thanks in advance

The only thing you could do, as far as I'm aware, is have your friend go into Options (Alt+O), IRC and under Show In Active, check Queries. Then all /query and /msg messages will show up in the active window, the window that he/she currently has in focus, rather than having a seperate window pop up.

I'm not sure if querries could be sent to a specific channel through a bit of scripting or not. Maybe one of our scripting wizards can help.

*IF* the other user wants to include a script on his/her computer, you can have them include this:

Code:
on *:text:*:?: {
  if ($nick == yournick) {
    echo #thechannel $1-
    window -c $nick
  }
}


Replace "yournick" with your nick. Replace #thechannel with the channel you want it to be visible in.

Other options include having him/her set queries (as mentioned above) or notices to be displayed in the active window. Of course, this doesn't make it display in a specific channel unless that is the active window.

As a final note, if the channel wouldn't have issues with it (most would), you could set up a personal encode/decode setup. You'd type it to the channel and it's encoded in some way so no one can read it without knowing the way to decode it. Similar to using $decode, but you'd need to write your own encoding method or everyone can simply use $decode.

1) Get him to use a script:

Code:
on ^*:open:?:{ 
  if ($nick == Camper_killer) { 
    echo #blegh (private) &lt; $+ $nick $+ &gt; $1- 
    haltdef
  }
}


2) If you're both the only two ops on the channel use the /onotice command.
