$readini(,,)

For example:

$readini(users.ini,admins,$1)

This could be used in the following to determine the user\'s administration status:

set %status.nick1 $readini(users.ini,admins,$1)
if (%status.nick1 == $null) { set %status.nick1 0 }

That would find the level of the user, and if the user isn\'t in there, it would set their level as 0.

Each section, such as admins, is shown like this in the file:

[admins]

So, it will look under admins, for the third thing in the ()\'s you specified. In the case above, for $1. If $1 is DeathRyder082, it will go to the following line if it exists.

DeathRyder082 = 10

It will then read what\'s after the = sign. So in this case, it would return 10.

You can find more in the mIRC help file. Hope this helps a little :)
