I didn't think about someone saving the file as an .ini. When the group of people I hung out with on Undernet years ago got into making small script add-ons, we always saved the file as .mrc. Excluding the script.ini, all other scripts I've made in recent years always have that file extension so I had no clue about .ini file appending line numbers to files. That's my bad.

Like I've said, this was for nostalgia purposes. I thought MAYBE someone would have remembered the old script and thought it would be funny or cool to have it available again as a mIRC script. If you don't like that way of talking, don't use it. I still load the tcl on the few eggdrops I have.

As to the coding, I started writing scripts in back on mIRC 4.52. We didn't have fancy identifiers like $noqt back then. When I was keeping up with the new mIRC versions and the new stuff put into them, sockets were implemented. So I wrote the script the way I knew how and it worked. And seriously, what difference does it make if %temp is global or local? I use %temp in tons of aliases and events and I've yet to have a problem with it.

And as far as "/" being unnecessary, I'm surprised you didn't say something about %_aol.count not being utilized anywhere. ;) The whole script is unnecessary.

My way works and it's easier to read than what you posted.

Thank you, DarkFlaze and trill. I guess I should have realized from what napa and Nathan had posted earlier that this isn't some place to post scripts and have a laugh. I didn't even realize this was suppose to be some lame MySpace rip off until after I made the post. Looks like it's just a bunch of elitist mERK scriptards.

You kids take this whole scripting thing WAAAAAAAAAAY too seriously. lol.
