Forums Scripts & Popups $$? chekup

how can i for this:

/write $mircdirsystem\file.txt $$?="something:"

make checkup like: if (that_code_up isnum) { do things }

?

$? is deprecated.

do you mean that the data you want to write to the text file is what you want to check to see if it is a number?
alias something {
var %something = $$?="something here"
write $mircdirsystem\file.txt %something
if (%something isnum) { commands }
}

Even when using $? there's no need to use a %var:

thanks =)

btw what does "deprecated" mean ?

~edit

i have small problems
in dialog when i press button i have this

if (#* !iswm $input(Something:,de,Input Request)) { .echo -a invalid channel name! | halt }
elseif (#* iswm $input(Something:,de,Input Request)) { write $mircdirsystem\spam_channels.txt $v1 }

thing is i have more IF's so i cant give ELSE
but on elseif it gives 2 input boxes... and it always writes #*
instead inputed text

so for the OP

alias something {
write $mircdirsystem\file.txt $$?="something here"
if ($! isnum) { echo command }
}

although $? is depreciated (somewhat) it has flexabilities different from $input and is still in the help file under Aliases.

change it to $v2

also you have the $input twice

if (#* !iswm $input(Something:,de,Input Request)) { .echo -a invalid channel name! | halt }
elseif (#* iswm $input(Something:,de,Input Request)) { write $mircdirsystem\spam_channels.txt $v1 }

I think you should use a var %something = $input(Something:,de,Input Request)
and put the var in your if statements

well i have to have 2 inputs coz it checks if inputed txt has #text or not :P

From google:

ehm.. and in normal words? :P

It means that over time $? became less and less useful and didn't fit in well, so eventually, $input was added to replace it. While there's nothing wrong with using deprecated features, it just doesn't make a lot of sense.

oh.. well in some simple ways $$? is better and faster imo :P

also =)
do oyu know how to fix my 2x input problem ? :P

thank you very much again ^^
