is there a select all text shortcut? - mIRC Discussion Forums

I have been using this program for years, and the other day I wanted to copy and paste a list of things he said but the list was so long and I could only scroll down so far by click and dragging to highlight everything. I figured there was a highlight all type shortcut so I can copy it easier. Let me know.

Unfortunately there is not as far as I know

ok thanks

You will have to Save Buffer (/savebuf) and then open in notepad.

Yes, mIRC doesn't let you scroll while selecting.

I use this to copy/paste entire channel/query/status buffers. Just put this into the alias tab and run "/chancopy" in whatever channel/query you want to copy, then paste the output into notepad or whatever.

Code:

; Copy for alias tab 

chancopy { 
  var %l = 1, %s = $line($active, 0) 
  clipboard 
  while (%l <= %s) { 
    clipboard -an $line($active, %l) 
    inc %l 
  }
}
