Is there a possibility to display the real number of users in a channel? The number normally shown in /list #chan - in case +D is on.

Thanks.

Not unless you're on the channel.

That's the case. It's for recording purposes for an event. Thanks.

It is possible to get that number from the /list command, using Raw numerics. If you really need this done and don't know how to do it, I will do the work, but it'll take a couple of days as I have other projects already on the go.

I'd appreciate it by far. I can wait! Contact at bleah at telenet dot be - if necessary.

Thank you.

Can't you just use $nick($chan,0) ?

He wants the total without joining the channel. $nick($chan,0) doesn't work if you aren't in the channel.

I never saw him saying he isn't on the channel. "That's the case." can be taken either way, but I assume it means "Yes, I am indeed on the channel". ;P
Then again, I'm not familiar with the IRCd using +D as a channel mode, so that might be helpful when drawing a conclusion.

unreal IRCD

UnrealIRCd does not use channel or usermode +D...

I'm on the channel, and it's Quakenet, IRCd.

So then 5618's question stands, can you not use $nick($chan,0) ?

Ok. Considering he was using /list, I assumed he wasn't on the channel.

To the OP, just use $nick($chan,0) as mentioned. I have no idea what this +D does, though. So maybe that affects something.

Here's the code.. it is tested, but as it uses the /list command, you will get the list window.. I was not able to figure out a way around that.

Thanks! Awesome. Do you mind explaining how to bind it to a timer? I've tried all sorts of combination but no luck, novice for life.

Thanks again.

It's OK I found a way!
