Forums Scripts & Popups Simple logging script.

I want a simple... a very simple logging script, but I have no idea how I'd go about it.

I'll try to explain the concept of it, since I'm usually BAD at these things.

I want a script to tell me if I am logging a chat channel or pm window when it opens, without it logging that actual line. I log windows in a very specific way, so it'd be neat if I had some way of mIRC to go "You are not logging this window." when I open it, so I can turn logging on for said window.

It is to mainly make it so if I know someone that tends to use multiple nicks, I can set their log to ONE log instead of dozens of logs.

If someone could help this would be appreciated.

If can be a simple script just telling me the 'logging status' of the window when I open it. That's all I really need. "Logging is off." "Logging is on."

This one for private msg windows
This for channels

The 'g' switch tells mIRC not to log that line.

Nice!

The one for channels works, but the one for queries doesn't seem to.

Edit: The one for query works, but only when someone opens a pm window with me. If I open a window with them, it doesn't trigger.

Edit 2: I figured out a snippet that I can use if I make a query window via making a query alias to do the check personally... but sadly it BREAKS the on open event since it uses the query command.


That's what breaks the on open event. Now, I decided to add it into the Mouse options in mIRC itself so it doesn't MODIFY the query command...



The sad part is, it works when I doubleclick a name to open a query window, but if I use /query to message someone, it doesn't do the event trigger.

I feel like I'm in a loop.

Edit: Oops didn't mean to make this double post here.

You should probably use the alias for when you open a query.

Just add a '!' to the on open line; on *^:open:?:*:!query -n $nick


The ! prefix (!query) tells mIRC to use it's inbuilt command and not your alias to perform the task.

the alias didn't work at all is the problem

when I made the alias, typing /query just made it go 'durrrr?' and it broke the on open event since, saying 'incomplete code' or something.

The alias didn't work for the script because the script sent "-n" as $1.

Ahh... so what should I do for querying people? with a /query command? D: make up a new query command? XD I guess I could do that. Train myself to do /q or something

... Unless /q is taken. D:

Use the alias that you posted before. it should work fine for when YOU open a query window.

/query: insufficient parameters (line 15, aliases.mrc)

I'm getting that with the on open event.

It's still referring to my query alias.

EDIT: I got it working. I deleted them both and put them back in and now it works. I dunno why. But it now works.
