Something like /msg #channel(network) your message? I am guessing this is not possible buy figured I would ask just in case. Thanks! OH! AND PS!: Is there a way for a automated script to only /msg a nick if that nick is online? like if ($nick isonline) { /msg... Last edited by jh20001; 21/10/08 05:32 PM.

If you type /timer (without any parameter) you'll see a list of all currently running timers: * timer <N / name of timer> [<repetitions>] <delay> delay <timer command> (<network>) If you want a timer to be executed on all connections instead, or another connection than the "current" conection (the connection you're starting the timer at), have a look at the /scon and /scid commands. The "only if that nick is online" thing is more difficult. Your script needs to call a /who <nick> or /ison <nick(s)> first, and parse the respective raw reply of the server. Maybe mIRCS notify list feature will help you: if the nick had been added to the notify list, you can use the $notify(<nick>).ison identifier directly, without the need for a "separate" check via /who or /ison.

As for the second question, what I did was (since I need this for a temp project)...I set the "on dns" event to activate a specific alias if the nick is solved, and to activate a different alias if the nick cannot be resolved. So if the nick is online...it will be resolved. :o)
