How Many .mrc Files Can Be Loaded

Greetings, brothers and sisters.

I'm working on fixing a friend's script. In order to target specific aliases and events I have opted to split each event and alias off, and place it into its own file. Granted this makes for many (many, many.......) files loaded to the remote tab. Is there a limit to how many files I can have loaded on mIRC version 7.19? Perhaps limited by mirc.ini in relation to its file size...?

As we speak, I have 109 *.mrc (including ten "spacers"), and mirc.ini is only 11kb. If my theory is correct, I should be able to have thousands of files loaded with no issues.

Before anyone starts to say "it's counter-productive to have so many files", know that this is only for code checking purposes. I plan on reducing the mass of aliases, and removing the single-use aliases completely.

Chances are I already answered my own question, but I would still like to have verification from someone who knows for sure.

i'm not sure of a limit in that aspect. I've never reached one but then again i've never had anywhere near that many loaded at one time either.

Well, damn. I've been separating files like a mad house for the past hour or so...and went to check the file count........it's stopped at 114 files...I wonder what happened to the rest of them...

I guess this is my final answer. You can load 114 files in the remote tab.

Thanks for the reply, err0r.

I found the rest of the soles. They're in the /scripts folder. Every time I try to load one, it doesn't remain. I'm still sitting at 114. Maybe I overlooked a setting someplace...

Out of curiosity, what made you separate everything into its own file? Wouldn't it have been better to put them into (I've forgotten the mIRC term for it) regions?

For example:

#MySection on
if (somecode = something) { blah | moreBlah }
#MySection end

I forgot to mention I'm fixing the errors he made in it. Now instead of chasing an error on "line 10548 of a.mrc" down, I now just have to find the error on "line 5 of b.mrc" I fix the error, and put it back in the main file, then send it back.

I think you'd be better off using the regions and goto line but to each their own.
