Is it possible to save phrases that can be put into a conversation without having to retype them every time? Like your description or your interests, for example?

you can create an alias, which you can either type in the channel editbox or add it as a right-click item in the popups menu. Pressing Alt+R takes you to the scripts editor, where you can place aliases.

alias asl {
/msg $$chan age: none of your business sex: not your business either location: even more not your business
}

In this case, using "/say" is the equivalent of the "/msg $$chan". The double dollar halts this if used where $chan is not defined, which keeps it from trying to send a query message to the next word.

To send it like you would do "/me message", change the "/msg" to be "/describe"

You can also add this as an item in the right-click menu of your channel, where you currently see "channel modes". You can do this 2 ways.

1. Press Alt+P to reach the popups editor. Within that editor, use its 'view' menu to choose 'channel' where it currently has:

Channel Modes:/channel

You can add your own "label:command", for example adding the row:

Show ASL to channel:/asl

... which will run the above alias example.

2. In the same script file where you created the above 'alias asl', you can also add several rows:

menu channel {
Show ASL to channel:/asl
}

... and it does the same thing. You can find more info on these from:

/help Popup Menus
/help Aliases
