why,repeat many times, any help to fix it

thnx

Yours is repeating because you have the echo line inside the goto loop.

The best way to do this would be to use a while loop instead. I have re-written it for you and will attempt to explain the code as well.
Here is the new code.

Code:

alias lista {
  var -s %lnn $nick(#,0,o), %lnp 1
  while (%lnp !> %lnn) {
    var %listops $addtok(%listops,$nick(#,%lnp,o),32)
    inc %lnp
  }
  $iif(%listops,echo -a $v1)
}

And now I will break it down for you.

Code:

alias lista {
  ;Set %lnn as the amount of ops in the room and %lnp as 1
  var -s %lnn $nick(#,0,o), %lnp 1
  ;Start the while loop, it will stop when %lnp is greater than %lnn
  while (%lnp !> %lnn) {
    ;Add the first/next op's name into the %listops token
    var %listops $addtok(%listops,$nick(#,%lnp,o),32)
    ;increase the %lnp variable by one
    inc %lnp
  }
  ;The loop is done now and this next line checks if the %listops token has any names in it and if it does it echos the names.
  $iif(%listops,echo -a $v1)
}

Good luck.

!> isn't a valid operator, should be <=, and the '=' sign for /var should be used with %listops.

!> isn't a valid operator

If thats true than all my mircs are broken because it works for me, even in $iif tests that I just performed with echo to verify.

Quote:

the '=' sign for /var should be used with %listops.

I thought this was a matter of preference.
My code tested fine so I'm not sure if an edit to add the = or change !> (is not greater) to <= (is less than or equal to) is needed.

Is there any good reason to make these changes? Perhaps they won't work on older mircs and I am unaware of this?

Just wondering.

I've just try it myself, and indeed it work, but it shouldn't.
Several report have been made about problem with operator and in the version.txt of mirc 6.3 :

Quote:

39.Fixed /if parser not reporting invalid operator for => and =<, and added not support for !> !<= etc.

So !> !>= !< and !<= should report an error. It looks like it has been already fixed but it's not the case.

The = sign, in real, is only needed for older version of mirc (6.21 and prior, i think) but should always be used because it's the right syntax.On an older version, the line with var %listops would display an error.

the If operators have been fixed, the user is likely on a version prior to this update.

I don't try it myself since i can't now, it's someone who has tested to use !< on a mirc 6.35, and no error was displayed.

You have it backwards-- !< has been *added*.. it's => and =< that have been removed.

Indeed, I've misunderstood this statement (I'm french), I'm sorry about that.
The question is why these operator are not in the help file, it would avoid a lot of confusion, at least for me

thnx x fast responding
