Forums Feature Suggestions DCC filename control...

Add a way to specify a file's local name to DCC to someone, and be able to specify the SENDING filename ie his receiving filename.

/dcc send mytext.txt MyFriend yourtext.txt

...well...you get the picture

ok, i read that a few times and im still not sure what you are asking. You can do /dcc send nick filename. Are you saying you want to send a file by the name you have it as, but by the time he gets it, its a diff file name?

you could use a copy+rename before you dcc... when triggered from a script...

else it would take 3 commands to type ;-]

"/dcc send mytext.txt MyFriend yourtext.txt"

If you did that it would try to open it in Paint (or the system default) which doesn't recognise and run .vbs scripts, so the virus would never execute...
