/ialmark Command - mIRC
< mirc‎ | commands

The ialmark command marks the IAL entry for a nickname with the specified text with an optional alternate name for the mark. In effect, it's like a hashtable for each nick where each item must have a string attached to it

Synopsis[edit]

/ialmark [-nrw] <nickname> [text]

Switches[edit]

  • -n - the [name] of the mark. If -n is not used, the default name 'default' is used.
  • -r - removes the mark
  • -w - used with -rn to treat name as wildcard

Marks can be accessed using $ialmark(nick,N/name) and properties 'name' and 'mark'. Marks are removed if the nick is removed from the nicklist, either from no longer being in a channel with them, or by /ialclear or by being disconnected from that server. You cannot have a named-mark without it having a value. The mark does follow the nick to the new nick after a nick change.

Parameters[edit]

  • <nickname> - The nickname you want to mark
  • [text] - The text you want to add. If not specified, the mark is cleared

Example[edit]

;If the nick Ouims is in the $ial, marks the nick Ouims with the named-mark 'default' containing the  text 'test'
/ialmark Ouims test
;If you are in the $ial, adds a mark to your nick named 'foo' containing the text 'bar'
//ialmark -n $me foo bar
;Remove the named-mark 'default' (any parameters after the nick are ignored)
//ialmark -r $me foo bar
;Remove the named-mark 'foo'
//ialmark -rn $me foo
;removes all named wildcard mark names beginning with 'f'
//ialmark -rnw $me f*
;removes all named wildcard marks beginning with 'd' including the default 'default'
;informs whether the named-mark 'default' exists, and if so whether it contains a mark value
//ialmark $me
;informs whether the named-mark 'foo' exists, and if so whether it contains a mark value
//ialmark $me foo
