/loadbuf (or the edit control?) cuts text #237908 14/06/12 02:11 AM
T Tuxman
Tuxman T	Obviously, the /loadbuf command - or the Edit control - has an undocumented character limit. Given the following alias: Code: alias -l fillListText { if ($dialog($1) && ($2 isnum) && $3) { if ($did($1,$2).lines <= 1) { loadbuf -o $1 $2 $3 did -z $1 $2 } } } We want to display the GNU GPL (quite a long file) in the Edit control $did(setup,503). Code: fillListText setup 503 media\license.txt The file is available here: http://minus.com/mB2D5XLc3/ Still something is apparently missing: I presume this is not intended.

Edit: it works with that option. Last edited by Wims; 14/06/12 12:05 PM. #mircscripting @ irc.swiftirc.net == the best mIRC help channel

Tuxman T	That should be documented IMO. Thank you for the advice!
