Oh. Thanx. I didn't think about that before, but that actually makes more sense. Still, that is something that should be fixed. I mean, if it's going to ackknowledge that channels exist with {}'s or -'s in the name, then I think it's only right if the variables can handle those characters too. Even if by only somehow making use of quotation marks, so that it knows waht the exact string is, instead of beginning/ending it at the {}'s. I still say it's something to be improved on in the next version of mIRC.
