EFF: No Broadcast Flag No Watermarks

Saturday, July 28

Ok, this seriously kicks ass.

In mIRC, if you want to send a quick private message to someone but don't want to bother opening a DCC window and all that crap, insert this line of code into the "script.ini" file of mIRC. This can be reached by opening the mIRC Editor and choosing the Remote tab. Make sure that the "script.ini" file is the one selected in the View menu.

Next, make a submenu. This is done by simply typing a name. So, for instance, the line of code in a submenu would read:

^Morph^'s Custom commands
.Send a PM in the main window:/notice $$1 $$?="Enter the message here."


The $$1 tells mIRC to send the end results of the processed command off to the highlighed nick in the nicklist, and the $$? makes mIRC produce a simple text box to type your message into. The "Enter the message here." text appears above the text box.


When you send the message off, it looks like this in the chat window:

-> <user> <message>

where <user> and <message> are the person's nickname and the message to them.

If you receive a reply from them by the same method, they'll have a dash - like this "-" - either side of their nickname and the message from them to you will be displayed.


Piece of IRC cake, really. ;)
