This is the discussion page for the mirc page.

Add section on Use code and style examples

I think it would be great if we could add a whole new section for people to contribute useful code snippets or style suggestions. If there was such a section I would happily contribute tens or even hundreds of examples from the weeks of effort I have put into remediating and enhancing a significant script. - Sophist (talk) 15:07, 17 September 2017 (EDT)

I guess the question is how far do you want to push that idea. Can you be more specific about what kind of code snippets are we talking about? Because if it's just specific scripts then there already are better sites for that like http://hawkee.com/mirc/snippets/ But I think you are talking about more generic snippets in some kind of a tutorial form? --Inject (talk) 15:35, 17 September 2017 (EDT)
Yes - I am talking generic code snippets that might be of use in many scripts. For example I have some generic identifiers that give mIRC options, generic sockets code etc. --- Sophist (talk) 02:27, 18 September 2017 (EDT)
That sounds fine if you want to try something. WikiChip is organized as an hierarchy, so there might be a main mirc/examples page followed by mirc/examples/specific pages just like we have with commands/identifiers. --Inject (talk) 16:53, 18 September 2017 (EDT)


Why is this here?

I keep wondering why all that mIRC stuff is here, on a Wiki that is dedicated to CPUs, architectures and related chipsets. An IRC client seems totally unrelated to that, and an obscure scripting language for that client even more so. If the documentation was about WikiSyntax, or VHDL, or something, I would understand it, but mIRC-Script? Note that I totally agree that this information is helpful, and should be documented, I just wonder if a CPU Wiki is the right place for it... 84.136.97.57 13:20, 29 December 2020 (EST)
