[22:08:47] MENUBAR is an unknown command

menubar?

He just edited the script in his post, it used to use /menubar, now it uses /titlebar.

Ah, ok.

In most of Pheonix's posts he has all didfferent aliases, maybe he made a menubar alias so:
[code
alias menubar {
titlebar $1-
}
[/code]
and forgot to add it to his post?

Then there would have been no reason for him to edit his post.

So what if he did? He would still of had to edit it into his post or make another one containing that alias for it to work anyway..

Which is why I said:

Meaning he could not of made that alias, because he removed /menubar from his original post.

I'm lost..what was your point? lol

i did actually make a menubar alias for the very reason i typed it in the 1st place, whenever i want to change the titlebar i use /menubar, i forget its /titlebar for some reason :tongue:

Code:

alias menubar {
titlebar $iif($1,$1,$active) $iif($2,$2-,$1-)
}

So why do always have an alias in a script, but don't gve the user the actual code for the alias, it would return unknown command for them, but whatever it is supposed to do for you.

you always tell people to read carefully, take your own advice, i made a menubar alias because i forget its titlebar not menubar, the reason for posting menubar(with no alias) was for the same reason, i forgot its /titlebar, read more carefully and take your own advice....

That is a load of crap, because you can only change the titlebar with /titlebar, and you made a menubar alias for titlebar, you used the titlebar command within your alias so you could not have forgot.

nope, i typed: /menubar all the time, obviously when it returned an error i knew it was titlebar, so i decided if i keep making this mistake i might as well make an alias.
whats so hard to understand about that?

lol, if you say so kid.

How about you stop trying to perpetuate this stupid argument and listen to what he said? He ADMITTED it was an alias. He said he uses /menubar so much that he FORGOT /titlebar was the real command. So the reason he didn't include the alias was because he forgot it was an alias. I don't see what is so hard to understand about that. He admitted he made a mistake, what the hell else do you want from him?

...
He uses the menubar alias to change the titlebar. In order to do that he would need the titlebar command inside his alias, so I don't see how he forgot.
If he did forgot what was stopping him from looking at the menubar alias code to get the /titlebar command.

when i forget its "titlebar" and think its "menubar", why the hell would i think: 'oh, ill just go and look at my menubar alias to get the titlebar command'.
idiot.

Are you really that dense?

HE DIDN'T REMEMBER THAT MENUBAR WAS AN ALIAS THEREFORE HE WOULD HAVE NO REASON TO LOOK FOR THE MENUBAR ALIAS DEFINITION BECAUSE HE THOUGHT IT WAS BUILT INTO MIRC. HE MADE A MISTAKE, HE ADMITTED IT, HE CORRECTED IT, NOW PLEASE STOP. YOU'RE MAKING NO SENSE AT ALL.

Is that clear enough for you to understand? And keeping score? Could you get any more childish? I'm not trying to compete with anyone, I'm trying to help you to understand something, if you don't want to, that's your choice, however I would not consider you choosing ignorance over knowledge to be "winning."

With all do respect, I am not the one who forgot the titlebar command.
Better memorize that $titlebar returns what ever is in mIRC's titlebar. Just incase you forget that too, I also notice you have forgot to post MSN related crap, lets hope it stays that way.
See, forgetting things isnt all that bad, don't get so emotional.
