Code: %Pilo Pilo But...if I try to read them out in the same style I created this variable... Code: //echo % $+ $me ...I get only this message... %Pilo ...why...if I can create this variables...why couldn't I read them out... mIRC-Help tells following... Quote: You can also set/unset dynamic variables using [] brackets: vartest { set %a [ $+ b ] 1 set %a [ $+ c ] 2 set %a [ $+ d ] 3 echo ab = %ab echo ac = %ac echo ad = %ad unset %a [ $+ b ] %a [ $+ c ] %a [ $+ d ] } But...this aren't dynamic variables... b, c and d are just static characters and no variables... to set or unset %ab you can simply use %ab and not this %a [ $+ b ] <- useless stuff Code: set %b b set %a [ $+ %b ] test echo %a [ $+ %b ] -> output: test echo %ab -> output: test ..%a [ $+ %b ] is in this case a real dynamic variable...nothing else... so...why isn't it working like this...??? Please tell me...

Oh well. The contrast is that the line here can be typed into the editbox still. Last edited by Chris84; 05/06/03 03:28 AM.

However, you do need some way to force further evaluation when you want to retrieve the value of such variable, and that's square brackets or $eval() First way: //echo -s % [ $+ [ $me ] ] Second way: //echo -s $eval(% $+ $me,2) or $eval($+(%,$me),2) /.timerQ 1 0 echo /.timerQ 1 0 $timer(Q).com
