"/sockwrite" BUG - mIRC Discussion Forums

Hi,
I'm using mIRC 6.16

Code:

//set %test &amp;test
//sockopen test www.mirc.com 80
//sockwrite -n test %test

produce this :

Code:

[color:blue]* /sockwrite: '&amp;test' does not exist[/color]

This is not a bug.

%test evaluates to &test, which is the represenatation of a binary variable. (/help binary variables)

And sockwrite will interpret binvars unless you specify the t switch, so change your sockwrite to:

//sockwrite -tn test %test

I *think* it's because you're using two slashes. Let me check.

[Edit: Nope, I've been proven wrong - by myself and the above poster]

Ok thanks.
