Forums mIRC Help Last /write line

Hi there,
Does anyone know if theres a Identifier to recall the line number of the last line wrote (/write)?

Thanks

I dont believe there is, you'd probably have to track how /write was used and store it in a variable.

Well if i explain what I'm trying to do, maybe you could think of a better way.

What I'm trying to do is have a timer started as a line is wrote, so that line is deleted after a set time.

Any ideas?

Are you merely adding the line to the end of the file, or the start, or a random position?

To the last line of the file

/write -d file.txt

Will remove the last line of a file, without knowning what number it is.

You could perhaps do something like

alias addme {
var %f = "[color:red]file.txt"
write %f $1-
timerdl. $+ $lines(%f) 1 5 write -dl %f
}
[/color]
So it runs -dl the same number of times you /write, might have some issues with it though, give it a try i suppose, /addme text.

Ohhh right! Ok thanks alot m8, that will do it.

Take care
