You need mIRC and the /help command.

/help if-then-else
is probably a good place to start.

there are also lots of scripting tutorials that may help you. Use the search feature here, set it to All FOrums, expand the date range to a few months and use tutorial as search term to find some urls. And of course read the help file and mIRC FAQ smile

You'll find out about them in due course; the help file will guide you through it all.

Master the Aliases section; the conquer Popups and finally Remotes; then you'll know where to go from there.

The help file *SHOULD* cover these sections well enough for you to land on your feet.

If you are serious about scripting get a dialouge maker and a debuger addon for your mIRC it makes things go alot quicker also a bracket checker helps lord knows when first making scripts you will forget brackets no doubt about it. There is also a little addon called Scripting for dummies a good little starter info file..

If you are serious about scripting get a dialouge maker...

The best dialogue maker is the mIRC script editor.

Definitely. And the best text editor/web authoring tool is Notepad.

Agreed. Notepad rocks.

Down with all these bloggers (Moveable Hype, etc) and coloured text editors.

Nah, pico beats notepad by a longshot! Notepad lacks some tools that are very useful for script/coding, such as "current line number" and "goto line number" features. Seeing as how mIRC says "....... on line 303" it is nice to be able to quickly jump to 303 without having to count. Pico rules!

Notepad has GOTO line number, for some reason the popup is greyed out in Win XP, though it works in Win 2000. I've used Notepad for website coding since I ditched Frontpage and Word about three years ago. I swear by it. It's l337.

Hmm I haven't tested on 2k, but as you said, it doesn't work on XP. To me, thats too valuable a tool to miss out on.

The odd thing is that GOTO is also in Notepad's help file - looks like M$ did a stuffup.

I suppose you ditched Frontpage and Word after you got winXP/200 then?
Because my notepad on win98 doesn't even have shortcut keys for items in the file menu, let alone something as advanced as 'goto line number'
I used it a while for website coding as well though smile

Nup, I've used Notepad on Win 98 too. I've rarely used the GOTO function as it is non-existant on 9X flavours. For the most part coding on my website rarely changes so I hardly ever run into bugs. I also keep coding extremely simple and only ever include what is absolutely necessary to make a function work, one of the reasons I did away with Word an Front Page, both those insert so much crap at the top of a page I am surprised that it doesn't crash people's browsers. Websites are the one thing that I just like to use old technology to create high-tech pages with.

Goto only works in notepad if you have wordwrap off.

I guess MS was too lazy to figure out how to count lines when word wrap is on... note how MS Word has no problems figuring it out...

It would be handy to have in both modes, that's for sure.
