So, I've never been good with this kind of thing, even though this request is fairly simple for others. What Im looking for is a script that separates a number into hundreds, thousands, millions, etc So:
100 = 100
1000 = 1,000
1000000 = 1,000,000
I wasn't sure what language to use to search for this on the forums, or else I would have searched first. Your help if greatly appreciated.

Use the $bytes identifer with the bd option.
b keeps bytes so it doesn't divide by 1000 or 1024
d keep the decimal part
example: 100000000.345
//echo $bytes(100000000.345,bd)
answer: 100,000,000.345

The simplest thing - is to create your own identifier that will take a number and return it with the necessary commas. I made it very simple, although it can probably be done in an even more tricky way. So you can try using this script code:
alias numsep {
if ($len($1) == 4) return $+($mid($1,1,1),$chr(44),$mid($1,2,3))
if ($len($1) == 5) return $+($mid($1,1,2),$chr(44),$mid($1,3,3))
if ($len($1) == 6) return $+($mid($1,1,3),$chr(44),$mid($1,4,3))
if ($len($1) == 7) return $+($mid($1,1,1),$chr(44),$mid($1,2,3),$chr(44),$mid($1,5,3))
if ($len($1) == 8) return $+($mid($1,1,2),$chr(44),$mid($1,3,3),$chr(44),$mid($1,6,3))
if ($len($1) == 9) return $+($mid($1,1,3),$chr(44),$mid($1,4,3),$chr(44),$mid($1,7,3))
if ($len($1) == 10) return $+($mid($1,1,1),$chr(44),$mid($1,2,3),$chr(44),$mid($1,5,3),$chr(44),$mid($1,8,3))
return $1
}
To test, enter this command: //echo -a $numsep(1000)Test results: 100 = 100
1000 = 1,000
10000 = 10,000
100000 = 100,000
1000000 = 1,000,000
10000000 = 10,000,000
100000000 = 100,000,000
1000000000 = 1,000,000,000

https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/mirc/identifiers/$bytes
//echo -a $bytes(1234567,b)
Since $bytes doesn't do it for extremely large $bigfloat numbers, I added an example on that page which can do it using $regex

$bytes cannot do it even for extremely small number,if you want to support decimals, only regex will do a great job. For integer only, then $bytes will do the trick... until you use a very large integer. With large integer, by default $bytes will stop being 'accurate' at the 2^53 limit. You could enable bigfloat, but that will make it slower AND is that is still limited (a much much larger value than 2^53 but still limited) whereas doing the operation on the string, via regex for example, is extremely fast and should be the prefered method here. Sat's demonstration: https://forums.mirc.com/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/259070/ ($bytes(1000000000000000.09,db) returns 1,000,000,000,000,000.1) alias insertcomma var %d $gettok($1,2,46),%r $regsubex($gettok($1,1,46),/(\d)(?=(\d{3})+$)/g,\1 $+ $chr(44)) | if (%d) return $+(%r,.,%d) | return %r//echo -ag $insertcomma(653471830)
//echo -ag $insertcomma(653471830.2528507487)
653,471,830
653,471,830.2528507487

Thank you everybody for the quick reply. So I looked into $bytes, but misunderstood the switches. Sometimes I just read things weird. For THIS instance, the MOST amount of characters would be 7 (1,000,000), so $bytes is the perfect fix.
This is why I LOVE the community here. I've used mirc since around 96 and the people here have always been so extremely helpful. You guys rock! Have an awesome day!
