Forums Feature Suggestions Parameter extension

I'd like to see $-N like you can do with $gettok:

$-1 returns the last token like $gettok($1-,-1,32)
$-2--1 returns the second to last and last tokens like $gettok($1-,-2--1,32)
$-3- returns the third to last token and onwards like $gettok($1-,-3-,32)

Then a suggestion for both $gettok and parameters; maybe allow positive to negative ranges, like this $2--1 and $gettok($1-,2--1,32)

if u can already do it by gettok then why do u want it as a new paramter

aswel u can maybe do

Then I would have to pass $1- as a parameter to $-1, which defeats the whole object of it.

I want it because it's a lot shorter than $gettok and it would offer more equality among the language.

Your assumption that a SPACE $chr(32) does not exist in any of the $n values, can not be supported, thus your script examples fail.

ie: //echo -a $-3-(par 1,par 2,par 3,par 4,par 5)
4 par 5

Correct answer should have been par 3 par 4 par 5

Exactly! This will be a nice addition to the mIRC built in identifiers, however the code shall be shorter and it’ll be handy.
I sign this suggestion too.

def. in favor of this.

Great shortcut , add me to the list of supporters.
