Forums Developers how to solve the :: ??

Hi all,

I want to make a script when people say ":W markov" to me, I say :W $nick back. The channel name is #xezium on irc.erik1.nl. Here's my code:

on 1:TEXT::W markov:#xezium:/msg $chan :W $nick

but at those :: at TEXT::W it doesn't seems to work out. How can I solve these double : things ??

Thx

You cannot use : as part of the matchtext since it's part of the event syntax.

Try

Yay it works thanks alot !!

you could also use $() (no not $+() ) with the match text if I'm not mistaken :-]


on *:TEXT:$($chr(58),W markov):#: { }

which would save you having the event at the top of a clean remote file to work...

You do need $+() here. $() doesn't concatenate anything, it's just there to tell mirc to evaluate the matchtext. For example, it's obvious that
//echo -a $chr(58),W markov
won't work, you need $chr(58) $+ W markov or $+($chr(58),W markov). Similarly, the event should be:or
