Does anyone know the various switchs for echo $color(color)? I know that there is -at, -st, but what are the other ones, and what do they mean. I checked mIRC help but echo does not show up.

 

 

Copied from mirc help file;

 

If a channel/nickname isn't specified, the -s switch echoes to the status window, the -d switch echoes to the single message window, and the -a switch echoes to the currently active window.

The -e switch encloses the line in line separators.
The -iN switch indents the wrapped line by N characters.
The -h switch forces lines to hard-wrap so resizing the window doesn't change the line.
The -t switch prefixes the line with a timestamp if global time stamping is on or timestamping is on for that window.
The -q switch makes it not display the text if called from an alias using the . prefix.
The -l switch makes it apply the highlight settings to the line that's displayed.

The -bf switches make it apply the beep/flash settings in the window it is echoing to.
The -n switch prevents the echo from highlighting the window switchbar icon.
The -m switch indicates that the line should be treated as a user message, not an event.
The -g switch prevents the line from being logged to the log file.
The -r switch applies the strip settings in the messages dialog.
The -c switch uses the specified color name from the colors dialog.

lol oh

 

I guess I should get in the habit of using the / then I might actually find things in the help file.

 

Thanks mail and X-System

Hey Gwen. Nice to see you here again.

 

for the $color switches I only know of a few (kick) (info) (info2). However, instead of using the $color you can just place numerics there instead, and you'd get more colors such as this code here... :pizza:

 

echo 0 # <messagehere> (white)
echo 1 # <messagehere> (black)
echo 2 # <messagehere> (dark blue)
echo 3 # <messagehere> (green)
echo 4 # <messagehere> (red)
echo 5 # <messagehere> (brown)
echo 6 # <messagehere> (purple)
echo 7 # <messagehere> (orange)
echo 8 # <messagehere> (yellow)
echo 9 # <messagehere> (light green)
echo 10 # <messagehere> (teal)
echo 11 # <messagehere> (blue green)
echo 12 # <messagehere> (blue)
echo 13 # <messagehere> (pink)
echo 14 # <messagehere> (gray)
echo 15 # <messagehere> (silver)
