Forums Scripts & Popups /write without evaluation

I've written a simple bot in mIRC, with a !addquote command. This command writes the parameter in a file, so you can use '!quote' to see the quote again

Now, the only problem is this:

When i do "!addquote Exploit $1 in this script" it writes "Exploit !addquote in this script" to the text-file. This, ofcourse, can be very dangerous, because ppl can just read out all mij variables. I know $read has an option to not evaluate the text, is there such an option for the '/write' command? Or do I have to check the input?

did you try; !addquote Exploit $!1 in this script

seems you evaluate the text ($1-) twice...

check for any $eval or [ ] that might cause this

/scon and /timer also do an extra evaluation on the parameters passed to them. Refer to these posts for more info on the danger and the way to avoid it:
