The on start event triggers either when mIRC is started, or a script file is loaded, either through the scripts editor, or via the /load command. Only one on start event is allowed per script file.

Synopsis

on <level>:START:<commands>

Parameters

<level>

The access level required for the event to trigger.

<commands>

The commands to be performed when the event is triggered.

Examples

Add a pre-typed command to connect to certain networks upon pressing enter to the editbox:

on *:START:{
  var %c $chr(124) server -m
  editbox -a //server irc.swiftirc.net %c irc.dal.net %c irc.efnet.org
}

Create a hash table named ircpoints and load data from a file named ircpoints.hsh into the table if the file exists:

on *:START:{
  if (!$hget(ircpoints)) { hmake ircpoints }
  if ($file(ircpoints.hsh).longfn) { hload ircpoints $v1 }
}
