So I'm trying to code a simple replacement script... but what I've come up with so far is rather limiting in what I can do with it, and it gives me some side effects. on :INPUT:: { if (/me == $1) { return } elseif (/* iswm $1) { $$1 $replace($2-,",",::,6::) halt } } The reason I have it like this is I use it for aliases for roleplay. like instead of typing a character name or using an IRC nick.. I'll type.. /dude hey! and it'll come out <That Dude> hey! Now my script replaces :: with a colored version and " takes away all colors for text. I would like to somehow make it work with brackets ... for thought bubbles like .o( blah ) but with mirc coding it recognizes ( ) for code... so I can't do that. D: Also when I type / and hold control to show the command instead of USING it, it ignores the control key and uses the command anyway.. Just curious if anyone had suggestions. I know it's a bit ridiculous. Oh and my aliases are something like /dude say <That Dude> $1- Last edited by Jaillynian; 08/08/12 04:28 PM.

Use it: Code: alias dude say $replace($1-,",",::,6::) /dude hey! If you already have a dude alias, just add the $replace part to your existing code and then you don't need a crazy on input script to do what aliases are already meant to do. - argv[0] on EFnet #mIRC - "Life is a pointer to an integer without a cast"

Code: alias dude_text { return $replace($1-,",",::,6::) } alias dude1 { say Something with $dude_text($1-) } alias dude2 { say Something else with $dude_text($1-) } alias dude3 { say Something else else with $dude_text($1-) } alias dude4 { say Something else else else with $dude_text($1-) } alias dude5 { say Something .... with $dude_text($1-) } ... - argv[0] on EFnet #mIRC - "Life is a pointer to an integer without a cast"
