This is what shows up in status when you connect:

* nick sets mode: +i
-
Local host: localhost (IP)
* No one in your notify list is on IRC

can you grab these events and haltdef them, then echo your text instead?

The first one can be caught by on USERMODE (which returns the mode(s) being set).
The second one can probably be caught with the on NOTIFY event.

Local host: localhost (IP)

thnx. that one then?

You can't

on ^*:notify: {
haltdef
echo -st 5 $+ $1-
}

that one wont grab the

* No one in your notify list is on IRC

on connect, any other ideas?

alias notify { stuff here }
The local ip one can't be scripted, it's internal.

dosent work, i remmber some script that could grab everything that was outputed in status, and also able to hide it, but dunno who made it and when it was, maybe 3 - 5 years ago

Not everything can.
* Connecting to irc.server.com (6667)
* Connect cancelled
* Local host: some.dns.com (1.2.3.4)

Those can't
neither can kills on IRCX servers (noted in bugs and feature suggestions)

i saw a script that echoed everything from status to another window, and then cleared or hided the default text. And it could hide evrything. I think it was Hammer that wrote it, but not shure.
