Forums Scripts & Popups Select all nicks but not mine

To select all nicks I found this simple script:



How can I exclude my nick in this selection?

alias listnicks {
set %i 1
while (%i <= $nick(#,0)) {
set %nickname $nick(#,%i)
if (%nickname != $me)
echo -a %nickname
}
}

alias listnicks {
var %i 1
while $nick(#,%i) {
if $nick(#,%i) != $me { echo -a $nick(#,%i) }
inc %i
}
}

Your script is interesting but something doesn't work...

The best way to do this is to simply add all the nicks to a variable, then use $remtok(%var, $me, 1, 32) to remove your own nick afterwards. This saves all the comparisons each time through the loop.

alias listnicks {

• var %nicks, %i = 1
  while ($nick(#,%i)) var %nicks = %nicks $ifmatch, %i = %i + 1
  return $remtok(%nicks, $me, 1, 32)

}

The only real limitation is the string length. If the length of all the nicks goes much over 930 characters, you will have problems. Otherwise, this will work fine.
