Color Code

I hope I can explain myself to the forum and get some help with this question ... let me explain what is happening via 2 screen shots ... when I put a color code i.e. S Tahoma;0 into a script that I am using in vista these disappear in the color code so when I added them to a code where im using my script in vista they do not work in vista ... take a look at the 2 screen shots ... I am using these color codes in spcn (sparkpea.net) as always nais tuke = thank you for any help on this one

I have also had that same problem.. If anyone knows a fix for it, let us know lol

i believe it should still work.

If not, try a different editor like Notepad++. It may show up a tad funny, but it should make it more recognisable visually.

on my mirc color codes show up as

little L's look

In Remotes

On Vista Notepad

Can anyone paste an example for testing, rather than using screenshots?

on *:INPUT:#: {
  if ($left($1,1) === $readini(mirc.ini, text, commandchar)) && (!$ctrlenter) { return }
  haltdef
  .msg # $1-
  echo -ti26 # $thmnick($me, $chan) $+ :4 $urlc($1-)
  window -g1 $chan
}

iv been away today and havent been in long but as soon as I got in I took a look at the repies and I tried the mirc color code (Ctrl + K) took the color I wanted to use in the code 4 but it didnt work it would show in the room like this 4Hi J0hnson

 on *:Join:#:{ 
  if ($nick == $me) { 
    halt
  }
  else { 
    msg # 4Hi $nick 
  }
}

JOhnson, this is all you need:

on !*:join:#: {
  msg # $+($chr(3),04,Hi $nick)
}

You can use mirc $chr(3) to initiate a color code with their numbers; $chr(3) means Ctrl+k.

The ! sign in mirc indicates that it won't trigger upon your own entry if used in the on join event.

Haggis' example worked fine for me in Notepad; the characters show as little "L" shapes, just like the forum. Check your Notepad's font - mine's set to Lucida Console.

yeah Johnson u have broken notepad lol
