Quote: Chan1 <botname> Section ReleaseName Time Chan2 <botname> .:[ ReleaseName ]:[ Section ][ Time ]:. Chan3 <botname> Time Section ReleaseName I can see that chan1 is $2, chan2 is $2, chan3 is $3 and so on... What I would like is to caption only that ReleaseName and echo back into my @windows as a result something like this. Quote: @ReleaseName Chan1 have just announced $2 Chan2 have just announced $2 Chan3 have just announced $3 It has been a while since I've scripted mIRC and I've lost all my scripts few years ago and have completely forgotten how to script well - so I'm starting from scratch here so I'd appreciate for someone to give me solution. Reason why I ask, it's because I do not want to write a VERY LONG code (yes, i'm terrible at coding :p) - So I'm hoping someone have a solution to make it smaller code. Thanks Last edited by colt45; 07/01/18 07:37 PM.

Seems like you want something similar to: Code: on :text::#chan1,#chan2,#chan3: { if (!$istok(bot1name bot2name etc , $nick , 32)) return aline @windowname $chan has just announced $1- } A token can give unexpected results if there are color codes touching the visible letters.
