Forums Developers on INPUT in the server window?

Is there some way to process text input in the server window? For example: /join commands

I can see how to process channel windows, query windows, DCC chat windows, and DCC fserve windows, but not the server window?

Only via on *:INPUT:*:if ($active == Status Window), I believe.

thanks, I'll try that... and let you know

Richard

good call, though this also works:

on *:TEXT:Status Window:{ <commands> }

Using your suggested method may, however, allow for some consolidation and reuse of similar segments of code.

Thanks!

Ah, never knew, sorry.

I fail to see how this could work, as the ON TEXT event is significantly different from the ON INPUT event.

In fact, it states in the help file under /help on text

Additionally, the ON TEXT event has a matchtext section, which the ON INPUT event does not.

In fact, when I tried this
and then entered the message TEST in a status window, I got the following response

Oh, I believe he meant on INPUT and accidently typed on TEXT in his post, I didn't even realize.

And

works well for me, without any quotation marks enclosing status window.

You can try this one:

You can also add a .halt in the end if you want the script to halt the text/command..

add the halt like this: { command | .halt }

I'd rather use $window($active).type, returning "status", "channel", "query", "custom" and so on.

Just curious, is there a difference between halt & .halt?

No. Prefixing commands with a . can make them silent, e.g. when using the timer command.
However, halt is already a silent command, so halt or .halt is the same.

forget the . , was a mistake from me :P
