Forums Scripts & Popups Problem with script and /me

Hey guys,

I made a small script,

on *TExt*!test....{
/me hello there
}

But when i type !test to trigger the event mIrc gives me this error msg in the status window

* /me: cannot use /me in this window (line 120, test.mrc)

But if I type /me bla bla in the Channel it works fine.
This script works on one mIRc but on another one it's just bicthing and giveming that error.
I think it's somethink with window focus, any one who can help me?

Thx in advance

You cant use /me in remotes
Use /describe



or

try using /describe instead of /me

beat me to it :P

Nic guys, works like a charm !!
Thx for the fast replyes

Mighty Joe its nice you wanna start in script but type /help to get most commands something like on text could of easily been found there

/help on TEXT

cheers

That is very true but the mIRC help file should show a little more information on the /ME command as it does for the /DESCRIBE command.

/ME message
Tells the current channel or query about what you are doing.

/describe <nick|channel> <message>
Sends an action to the specified nickname or channel, the same as the /me command, except that /me is used while in a query or channel window so you don't need to specify the target when using it.

So I think maybe the /describe should be mentioned in the help for /me or just moved into Basic IRC Command scompletely under or above /me.
