this is annoying when users executes /remove command
mirc always reports that it removed the file...

since /mkdir and simmiliar operations dont have this crappy message i vote that you remove this message from /remove too
since its useless and annyoing

or atleast add option to halt it

The . command prefix does this.

/.remove instead of /remove

see, this also annoys me.

at 6.0x versions it was recommended to use .command (with dot)
at 6.16 and above it was said that you dont need dots or slashes anymore, but as it appears and is fact that mirc DOES need them afterall since some commands do annoying output info if you dont use... (timer as example)

:P

The message was put in origially so that it couldn't be masked when someone removed a file, and the '.' was ignored.

At some point, it looks as if the '.' was re-enabled on the command, so it no longer shows the status message.

As for the slash, this just depends on where you are doing the command. If using the edit-box, you need the slash to say it's a command. If using a remote/alias/popup script, the slash is not needed, as every line is considered a command.

You should get better sources for your information.
