Can you create this?)

Comipling .mrc files to .exe
Posted By: MTec007 Re: mrc2exe - 27/01/09 10:40 PM
that simply can't/won't happen. It has ben suggested many a time in the past as well. mrc scripts depend upon mirc.exe for one, and some scripts depend upon mirc's connections as well. There is a solution however, you can use python, or sharpdevelop (free development enviroment for the .net framework) or many others that will allow you to create executable files.

Python isn't really a good example of creating executables. There are programs that can package a python script with the interpreter into an executable, but its not nearly the same thing as a standard exe.. I mean, it would be as easy as packaging mirc.exe with a script into some single self-contained executable. If one of your goals is to discourage people from editing your scripts, such a solution wouldn't help.

yeah i agree with you there, but it would basically be like depending on the .net framework in a way. also did not think about the 'editing' factor, i was thinking more about 'standalone' scripts factor.

Well then add in mirc start parametre. For example "mirc.exe -exec script.mrc" that the file of a script without opening mirc, well or with opening dos windows was executed.

As you've already been told, mIRC scripts require mIRC to be open, therefore requesting a switch to allow a script to run without opening mIRC is a waste of time.
I've seen hundreds, and possibly thousands of scripts written for mIRC, but I can't think of one situation where you would want to be able to run a script without mIRC being open.

Some people could answer it would be useful when making a game.

For an example. It is possible make the Internet browser a mirc-scripts. By means of sockets there will be grab a page and is deduced in dialogue. Besides for mirc there is a heap dll with which help it is possible even will be connected and to use mysql.

And probably has nothing to say to this suggestion-- it has been requested many times and, frankly, will likely never be implemented.

I can wink it would be nice to be able for an example run the mp3 player coded in mirc as a stand alone program. Same goes for games as people said befor smile

this is where you start mirc minimized, or use the on start event to minimize mirc and launch the game/script/whatever. you dont need an exe, and honestly, i *WOULD NOT* trust these scripters nowadays with executable files. if i were hosting a mirc scripting site, no exe files would be accepted, period.

Can you honestly tell me you would use a "mp3 player" or a "game" that you found on some website made by some guy you dont know? HONESTLY? i pray you say no, but just in case, get yourself a really high tech antivirus and filesystem protector. you might need more than that though.
