The aline command is used to add a single line of text to a custom window. This command is limited to custom @windows, If you need a more general command that is able to print to both custom windows, channel, and query consider using the /echo command instead.
Note: If the main window is sorted (text or listbox and /window -s has been used), lines added with /echo to that window won't be sorted, only lines added with /aline will.
Synopsis
/aline -scNahpinlt [c] <@name> <text>
Switches
- -s - Clears the old selection in a listbox and selects the newly added item
- -a - Selects the newly added item while keeping the old selection in a listbox
- -h - Highlights the window's node in the treebar/switchbar if the window is minimized
- -p - Forces the line to be wrapped if it's too long to fit in on one line (does not apply to listboxes)
- -i[N] - Indent the newly added line (does not apply to listboxes) by N spaces, default to 2 spaces
- -n - Prevent the line from being added if it already exists
- -l - Specify the action to take place on the side-listbox
- -t - forces a re-wrap of all lines in a window that have not yet been wrapped to the current window size.
- -cN - Same as specifying the [c] parameter for the color of the line but via a switch
