Normally when you click a nickname in the channel window, it will select that user in the right bar. Is there any script that will transfer the username to the message bar?

For example, say 'User1' typed out a long message and I clicked on his nickname... I would like to be able to click his name and my message bar is filled with 'User1: ' then my cursor will be in the message box so I can start typing a message to him.

Any suggestions?

Hi,

double click on the nickname, instead of single click. This will open a query window to that person, resulting in:

1) his nickname in the message bar
2) your cursor in the message box so you can start typing to him/her

This is assuming that you did not change the mIRC mouse settings. If you have changed them, or if it doesn't open a query window when double clicking on a nickname, then go to "Options --> Mouse --> Command to perform on nick double-click" and put /query $$1 in the edit box where it says Nick List

Well I don't want it to open a message window, I want it to start typing in the channel I clicked his name in..

EDIT: I figured that I can change that dbl-click mouse to make it /msg the channel, but how can I get the channel when I dbl-click?

For example, in my 'Nick list' under mouse, I changed it to '$$1: ', but that didn't work.. then I remember I could do '/msg #channel $$1: '

How do I get that #channel?

Ohhh

i see now what you mean with 'message box'...you mean the Editbox.

So if you click on a nickname, you want it to say in your editbox: Nickname:
and with the cursor there ready to type something.

Put this in that Mouse --> Nick list: editbox -a $1 $+ :

Enjoy!

This will add a space, and return the focus to the editbox.
