Here is an example of what I am trying to do: Code: alias test.query { var %1 testing echo -a Reply: $dde(mirc2,evaluate,$!test.reply(%1)) } alias test.reply return $1- I have a second instance of mirc running with the ddename set as mirc2. No matter what I do, I always just get "Reply:" How do I make the output as "Reply: testing" Last edited by mruno; 30/05/16 06:18 PM.
