$inpaste Identifier - mIRC
< mirc‎ | identifiers

$inpaste returns $true if a user triggered the ON INPUT event by pressing Control+V or Shift+Insert to paste text into an editbox or using the 'Paste' choice from the editbox's right-click menu.

It appears that $inpaste is mostly $false, and can be $true only when:

  1. In channel editbox where Options/Display/Other/'Editbox Lines' is set to 'Single'
  2. In @window editbox created with /window -e0 or -e, or created with -e3 while Editbox Lines is set to single
  3. Clipboard contains at least one of $cr $lf $crlf
  4. Paste from the clipboard triggers the ON INPUT event
  5. $inpaste is used within the ON INPUT or ON PARSELINE:out event
  • Note: If you paste text into the editbox which doesn't trigger the INPUT event, pressing <enter> later messaging the pasted text to #channel does not set $inpaste to $true.
