Mibbit detects users who are currently chatting and label those not as idlers with a separator. Can mIRC differentiate too and even colorify active and idle users, for easy viewing? For example: - Active users: Users whose last activity is detected within a certain time frame, say 30mins Can mIRC even detect and color this? Users who are currently active and typing typing messages - Idle users: No activity is detected after 30mins has passed Thank you! Last edited by concerned807; 15/08/10 06:40 AM.

I tried exactly as suggested it did not seem to work. Must be something I've done wrong? Hhhmm...... Last edited by concerned807; 15/08/10 04:41 PM.

If you have any other entries there for nick colour, then the idle colour needs to be at the top. You can move it with the Up and Down buttons. Are you perhaps using any other scripts that may be affecting the display of nick colours as defined in the address book? What does this return when you type it (anywhere) in mIRC? Code: //echo -a $version $os $md5($mircexe,2) $file($mircexe).sig $script(0) $dll(0)

Quote: * Identifier locked in options dialog: $dll Aha, I see. When unchecked this, I got what I wanted. mIRC Options --> Other --> Lock --> Disable commands --> DLL Hmm...how can I bring active users on top of all idlers? I've got a pretty long list of users to scroll up and down to find active ones BTW I had check mark on DLL command because I wanted absolutely secure mIRC and also because I do only text-based chat.

DLLs can also be used for text processing and whatnot. http://zowb.net /server -m irc.p2p-network.net -j #zomgwtfbbq (ssl on port 6697 and 7000)

I hope my mIRC Lock setting helps create the most secure environment while maintaining full text-chat functionalities. Under this setting: When this command was input: Code: //echo -a $version $os $md5($mircexe,2) $file($mircexe).sig $script(0) $dll(0) This result was returned Quote: 6.35 XP 2f63a83968f9586fe4fb48134253619c 1 0 Last edited by concerned807; 16/08/10 03:24 AM.
