Would be nice to have a way for #channel max lines to be set differently than changing the options/other/window-buffer setting.

This setting originally applied only to #channels, but later when it was changed to apply also to @windows, then /window was given a -jN switch so each window could have its own override setting.

However there doesn't seem to be a way to override the buffer setting for an individual channel, either permanent like how #channel positions can be saved permanently, or how the buffer can be set temporarily for a @window with -jN.

This would help people who keep a lot of windows open, but have only 1 of many channels that they need to have a large buffer. Right now they need to set the window buffer lines high for all channels in order to have it be large for just the 1 channel.

An alternative could be to allow /dline to work in a #channel, which would allow a maintenance script to be run on a timer to chop all non-exempt windows shorter.

Hi, I don't know if it is possible to create this type of script but I will try to explain anyway.

A lot of people on the channel where I am evade bans on forbidden words using special characters and things like that.

For example, there are people who spam their contacts (let's take the telegram contact for example) by saying they offer paid photos and videos and then scam those who believe in them.

If I block the word "telegram", then they use special characters to write it and avoid the ban, for example by using 𝓣𝓮𝓵𝓮𝓰𝓻𝓪𝓶.

I would like to cut off the head of the bull and know if it is possible to create a script (with the ability to activate and deactivate it) that will ban any message that does not contain the characters entered in the script.

So, something like this: a script that contains the normal letters of the alphabet, the exlamation and question mark and the numbers (with the possibility to add and remove what you want) and which then ban any message in the channel (/say and /me also) that contains anything else: emoticons, special characters, and so on. All. Anything that is not in the script. So you can only write messages with the characters contained in the script.

Would it be possible to create such a script?

Respected Khaled. You recently fixed and implemented (so far in beta) the long-needed ability to display icons in the list of open windows set for custom windows. The request was here: #Post269359

This works great and nice looks:

    

Is it possible to go further to provide us with an opportunity an option to customize and change icons for any windows open in the list, such as: "Status/Channel/Query/..." ?
Or at least to was able to assign your own icon to a specific type of window. For example, for all existing and in the future open private (query) windows, etc.

Possible commands:

Likely that some new -switch or other command might be required to do this. And also the ability to do it through the window pop-up menu on right-clicking. Thanks.
