The $color identifier allows mIRC to return the proper color code associated with the specified target.

Synopsis

$color(name/N)[.property]

Parameters

name Returns the color code for the specified name/action/event. Partial matches work as well: $color(action)
N Specifies that the color code to be looked up is the RGB value for a specific color box target from the CTRL+K list.

Properties

dd Allows the color codes to be returned in double-digit format, eg: 02 instead of 2. Does not work on RGB-returned values.

//echo -a $color(action)
