Forums Feature Suggestions Automatic word replacement

I used x-chat for about 1 week, just to try it out. A great feature i liked in x-chat was the word replacement one.
Whenever you typed the word hb, for example, the program would automatically replace it for Hurry Back.

This was a configurable feature, so you could adapt it for you pwn personal abreviations and setttings.

I think it would be nice to get sth like this on mIRC

Yah, this might be a nice feature...then again I find that general IRC netiquette does not like 'Laughing Out Loud' over a simple 'lol'.

For now however, there is a simple way to script it (Taken from this page which contains further help)



Just replicate the var %text = $reptok lines, but change the acronym part to match your needs.

Hope this helps!

Regards,

Its works great, thanks!

I agree that lol and brb are much better.. i was planning on using that to replace typos or abreviations, such as 'u' for 'you'.

Thanks for the quick response

You're welcome, glad I could help

Happy chattin'!

Regards,

It works great here, thanks again!

I was just wondering...why is this line different from the rest?



I mean, why this one has $1- and the others have %test ?

The first line sets the %text variable from $1- as well as any replacments needed.
The rest need to work on the contents of %text rather than the original, or any changes made by preceding $reptoks will be lost.

Oh, so the part will set the variable %text to anything after the = ?

yeah

Oh, thats cool Didnt know about that :P

much better than set %text blablabla

Thanks for the help!!

u can try this one too (i donno scripting, i got this from one of my friends)

on *:INPUT:*: {
if (/* !iswm $1) {
msg $active $replace($1-,brb,Be Right Back)
halt
}
}


u have to paste this in Remotes. u can add more words next to 'Be Right Back' by using the comma.
