In a menu, I want to have a single item as an option if a specific script is loaded, but if it's not loaded, then I want different items listed.
Specifically the items are for /whois & /whowas commands
Pseudo-Code:
menu * {
if $script(who2.mrc) {
whois/whowas who2 $iif($menu == nicklist,$snicks)
}
else {
.whois $iif($menu == nicklist,$iif(!$1,$$?="Nick",$1))
.whowas $$?="Nick"
}
}
Hopefully that's clear enough for someone to show how I can do it as a proper menu item (since that doesn't work as is)

I think you are looking for the $iif identifier:
menu * {
$iif($script(who2.mrc),whois/whowas):who2 $iif($menu == $nicklist,$snick)
$iif(!$script(who2.mrc),Who)
.$iif(!$script(who2.mrc),whois):whois $iif($menu == nicklist,$iif(!$1,$$?="Nick",$1))
.$iif(!$script(who2.mrc),whowas):whowas $$?="Nick"
}
Notice the . and : go OUTSIDE the $iif statement. -genius_at_work

Thanks, I knew about the $iif, but wasn't sure if there was a way to use the if/else format rather than multiple $iif's...guess not.

You can use less $iif's menu * {
$iif($script(who2.mrc),whois/whowas):who2 $iif($menu == $nicklist,$snick)
$iif(!$script(who2.mrc),Who)
.$iif($menu == nicklist,whois):whois $$?1="Nick"
.whowas:whowas $$?="Nick"
}

menu * {
$iif($script(who2.mrc),whois/whowas):who2 $iif($menu == $nicklist,$snick)
$iif(!$script(who2.mrc),Who)
.$iif($menu == nicklist,whois):whois $$?1="Nick"
.whowas:whowas $$?[color:red]1[/color]="Nick"
}Missed the 1 before

$$?1 means '$1' is used if it is supplied, if there is no '$1' you are prompted for input.

You can also do $$?1 or $?1 which means try to fill this value with parameter one if it exists. If parameter one doesn't exist, ask for it. In the first case the parameter is necessary for the command to be executed, in the second case it isn't. Don't feel bad that you were un-aware of it, took me 5 minutes to find it after being told where to look. LOL
