The /msg command sends a message to a specific channel or person. Many networks support multi-target messages - mIRC will not display the message in all the targets like it would with individual messages.

Synopsis

/msg <nickname/channel> <message>

Switches

None

Parameters

  • <nickname/channel> - The target channel or person for the message
  • <message> - The message to be sent

Note: An equals sign, =, when attached to a given nickname, allows the message to be sent to any open /dcc chat or /fserve windows with the remote user. See below for an example.

Example

Example 1

on *:text:!moo:#:{
  ; Message the channel moos back
  msg $chan moos back
}

Example 2

/* Example 2
*/
on ^*:open:?:{
  if ($away) {
    msg $nick I am currently away ( $+ $awaymsg $+ ), please leave me a memo: /ms send $me <memo>
  }
  halt
}

Example 3

Using the equals sign to send 'SomeUser' a message via DCC/FSERVE Chat

//msg =SomeUser Hey there, this is going to your open DCC/FSERVE Chat window, instead!

Compatibility

Added: mIRC v2.1a

Added On: 28/02/1995
