The /debug command outputs raw server messages to a file or a custom window Incoming messages are prefixed with <- and outgoing messages are prefixed with ->

Synopsis[edit]

/debug [-cinptrNoN] [color_index] [on | off | @window | filename] [identifier]

Switches[edit]

• -c - Turns off debugging (close associated window as well)
• -i - Call a specific $identifier and use the returned value as the debug lines
• -n - Minimize the custom @window
• -p - Wrap the debug lines if it is too long for the @window
• -t - Adds timestamp to the debug lines
• -rN - Uses the N color index as the line color for received debug lines.
• -oN - Uses the N color index as the line color for outbound debug lines.

Parameters[edit]

• [color] - Optional text color for the debug window (Partly overridden by -rN and/or -oN) Can be color index 0-99
• [on|off] - Turns debug on or off
• [@window|filename] - outputs to a custom @window or a file
• [identifier] - Calls an identifier before logging the debugged line (the returned value if used for the logging)

Example[edit]

;Opens @raw debug window (wrap text+
//debug -p @Raw

;The line can be 'piped' through an alias on its way to the log file.
From editbox: /debug -i Log.txt $console
From script:  /debug -i Log.txt $!console
 
Alias console {
  ; split by spaces
  tokenize 32 $1-
 
  ; open window if not already opened
  if (!$window(Console)) window -e @Console
 
  if (<- == $1) aline -p 9 @Console >> $2-
  else aline -p 4 @Console << $2-
 
  ; return the line back to mIRC's log
  return $1-
}

: This alias opens a debug window shared by all networks. Outbound lines in red, inbound lines in green. Note the identifier is listed on command line instead of calling an alias. The yellow 8 is overridden by defining in/out colors with -rNoN. Alias uses $time to display seconds without forcing all windows to show seconds in their $timestamp too
on *:CONNECT:{ debugg }
 
alias debugg {
  window -ze2Dj2000k @debug
