However, it locks up mirc till it's done listing it all. Is there any way I can get it to NOT temp lock mirc up? After it all lists, mirc goes back to being fully functional but while it's frozen I cant even type in it till it's done Those who fail history are doomed to repeat it

Try this: Code: /mp3s { if (!$window(@Media)) { window -elnsk0 @Media Times New Roman,11 } !.echo -q $findfile($sound(mp3),*.mp3,0,aline -l 9 @Media $nopath($longfn($1-))).shortfn } Spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and stupid comments are intentional.

Just force of habit from when I use commands in $findfile() which require that the filename be valid. If someone wanted to add something to that code to include the file size after the filename they could put $file($1-) on the end of the command parameter and it would correctly get the file size, whereas if I didn't use .shortfn it would fail on multi-spaced filenames. Spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and stupid comments are intentional.
