This only happens when the if statement is placed on the same line as the declaration. Steps to reproduce: 1. Place the following code in a remote script: Code: on :TEXT::?:if x x 2. Type //msg $me hi This will display: "* /if: invalid format" without line information. 3. Change this to: Code: on :TEXT::?: { if x x } 4. Repeat //msg $me hi This will properly display the file and line number: * /if: invalid format (line 30, script.mrc) Also happens with raw events and I assume this is the same for ctcp. - argv[0] on EFnet #mIRC - "Life is a pointer to an integer without a cast"
