Forums Scripts & Popups seen script

Hi
I am very unexperinced in mIRC but i spent some time putting together a CHANNEL seen script, So far its working fine, I just would like some comments and pointers to improve the script, i dont want anything fancy, just maybe make the code cleaner and some ideas are pointers forward, Thanks.

i didnt make the script silent by putting . before the commands as i wanted to see what it did for debugging purposes.

on *:start:{

if !$hget(seen) { hmake -s seen 100 }

if $exists(seen.hsh) { hload -s seen seen.hsh }

}

on *:JOIN:#: {
if (!$notify($nick)) {
notify $nick
if $hget(seen,$nick) {
hdel -sm seen $nick
}
}
}


on *:UNOTIFY: {
hadd -so seen $nick $day $date $time
notify -r $nick
}

on *^:TEXT:!seen*:#: {
if ($2 ison $chan) && ($2 != $nick) && ($2 != $me) {
msg $chan $2 is on $chan
}
elseif ($2 == $nick) {
msg $chan Hello $nick i found you.
.ignore -u7 $nick
}
elseif ($2 == $me) {
kick $chan $nick am here...
}
elseif !$hget(seen,$2) {
msg $chan i dont have any information on $2
.ignore -u7 $nick
}
else {
if $hget(seen,$2) {
msg $chan $2 was last seen $hget(seen,$2) GMT time
.ignore -u7 $nick
}
}
}

on *:exit: {

.hsave -o seen seen.hsh

}

on *:disconnect: {

.hsave -o seen seen.hsh

}

The -o switch in your hadd command is invalid.
The way /hadd works it will overwrite the current information if it exists.
I'd recommend using so that there's no possibility of a server error if you try to kick someone with and you not having ops in the channel.

I realize you'll probably ensure that you do have ops in the channel, so this is more of a safety than anything else.

As a basic !seen script, my compliments. If you want to take a look at some others that are more complex, you can find some on Hawkee , mIRC Scripts and possbily other sites that you can get to from links on those.

Ok thanks that means alot.
Is it possible to make it reply instead of the date and time how many weeks/days/mins ago the user wast last seen, i tried stuff myself but its a little complicated. Any pointers in which direction i should follow in order to achive that?
thanks

add another item in the table with the value of $ctime:

hadd seen $nick $day $date $time $ctime

Then when you're querying the user, take the ctime, subtract t from the current $ctime (that gets the delta value), and use $duration. i.e.:

Thanks so much, i have amended the code following the suggestions, thanks again.
