Forums Scripts & Popups Understanding Variables

I seem to have a misunderstanding on how variable work. Assume these are global.

If I have this example in variables:


Only the first variable will be used, correct?


What about this example? Is this treated like an array of possible results?


If I try this bit of script...


How would I look at multiple rows of variables or an array? Thanks for your help.

You cannot perform logic in the matchtext field of an event like that, you can either match all text * and handle conditions inside the event or use a regex for the text match. There are no arrays, everything is stored as a string. You can use the token identifiers $addtok, $gettok, etc. to work with lists.

If your goal is to catch when one of multiple words are used you can use a regex match:



If you're going to have a lot of these conditions it may be best to use a hash table and $hfind

Ah, this was a grand misunderstanding on my part. However you did give me the clues to fix it. Thanks!

This works fine:

By the way...


What and where is /iS located in the documentation? I cannot find reference to, likely because I'm looking in the wrong place.

Those are regex modifiers. i means case-insensitive. S is a specific flag for mIRC and means text stripped of colors, bold, etc

mIRC doesn't document regular expression because it's not part of mIRC and it's already documented.
Only 'S' is a special modifier, which is documented under the '$' prefix event, /help Event Prefixes

Good responses. Thanks guys.
