< mirc‎ | identifiers

$mask returns the address with a mask of the specified type.

Synopsis

$mask(address,type)

Parameters

  • address - The address you want the mask of.
  • type - The type of address, a positive integer between 1-19:
    • 0: *!user@host
    • 1: *!*user@host
    • 2: *!*@host
    • 3: *!*user@*.host
    • 4: *!*@*.host

    • 6: nick!*user@host
    • 7: nick!*@host
    • 8: nick!*user@*.host
    • 9: nick!*@*.host

Type 10-19 are same as types 0-9 except asterisks in host are expanded to the text they replaced, then all numbers are replaced by question marks.

Masks are case-insensitive and assigned by the internet provider, but IRC servers often provide user mode +x to help disguise them.
