Code: alias testar { if ($input(Wrong settings $+ $chr(44) do you want to retry?,8) == $true) { do stuff } } it wont do anything. dont know what i missed here. Shouldent that return $true of $false? if ($me != tired) { return } \| else { echo -a Get a pot of coffee now $+($me,.) }

If the 8 was for a timeout, then you were missing the required k parameter to indicate that the number is for the timeout allotment(sp?)

On another note, there is no reason to confuse yourself with numbers for the 2nd $input parameter. mirc added support for letter switches (which make more sense) a long time ago, you should probably start using them. /.timerQ 1 0 echo /.timerQ 1 0 $timer(Q).com
