Forums Scripts & Popups [blah]

if i make a .ini file and say i type this

[nice]
cheeseburger
hotdog
pizza

[bad]
onions
mayo
veg

what are the [ ?? ] ? r they a variable like %bad and %good or what?

It gives a name to the section. Any items under each [ ] are in that section.

You can use the name for using the search or wildcard match, it tells it to look in a specific section.

BTW, I think you ask too much questions maybe you should read the help file.

as an INI that wont return anything

[section]
item = value

so maybe in food.ini
[good]
1 = hamburger
2 = pizza
3 = beets preserved in old wine vinagar
[bad]
onions = smelly
sourkraute = rash
pumpernickle = devil farts

the item and value can be anything, but you have to have both

as a text that you could play to a channel what you had will work

in food.txt

[good]
hamburger
hotdog
pizza
[bad]
onions
mayo
devil fart bread
[end]
if you use /play -tgood food.txt it would play to that active channel/query/dcc-chat window the lines under the topic "good" til mIRC saw the topic [bad] where playback would stop.

thanks alot.

/play -tgood food.txt ... cud i add a line number on so it could only show.. 1 piece of food?

this may sound really dumb and make no sence but would..
something like
$gettok $read(food.txt,[good],2)
what would that do?

and yeh i do ask alot of questions, i have read the help file but i still dont understand certain parts.

no point in using the [topic] format to play one line



//echo $read(info.txt, s, mirc)

Scans the file info.txt for a line beginning with the word mirc and returns the text following the match value.

//echo $read(help.txt, w, *help*)
Scans the file help.txt for a line matching the wildcard text *help*.
/help $read
/help /play
/help contents

do i just put

//var %food = $?="Enter food word $crlf such as mayo" | msg $active $read(food.txt,s,%food)in food.txtmayo mayo is badhamburger hamburger is goodpizza pizza is goodonion onion is badsteak steak is very goodbread pumpernickel gives me the devils fartor//var %food = * $+ $?="Enter food word $crlf such as mayo" $+ * | msg #reece $read(food.txt,w,%food)in food.txtmayo is badI love hamburgeronly pepperoni pizza onion is badsteak is very goodbreads like pumpernickel gives me the devils fart
