Introduction

A dialog that allows you to completely handle ini files. You have the option to; create and remove ini files, add topics, add and remove items, and edit item data. Any comments, suggestions, or feedback is extremely appreciated.

** usage **

* adding/removing an item *

Just use the +/- buttons and from there it is easy. Make sure you have an item the list in the topics box selected.

* adding topics *

Click the '+' button under the topics box and there you are

* creating a new ini file *

Just click the '+' button next to the combo list. There is no need to specify a .ini at the end of the name.

* removing a file *

Click the '-' button next to the combo list and make sure to have a selected item in the list. Otherwise nothing will happen.

* editing item data *

Just use the edit box next to 'table data' and it will edit the text input. If there is no text in the editbox, it will do nothing.

Thanks mountaindew for your feedback. I made it optional to access the dialog through the menubar.

Nice idea ... but did you test it wel? No you didn\'t.

Code:

on *:dialog:initable:init:0:{
var %c = $findfile($mircdir,*.ini,0,did -a $dname 7 $nopath($1-))
return %c
}

This doesn\'t fill the filelist with the ini.files. %c will only contain the number of ini files that were found. And what is that return %c doing there?

Code:

alias ini.dialog { if (!$dialog(initable)) { dialog -m initable initable }

There is a } missing here with the result that the menu �sn\'t shown in the menubar.

I\'ll give it a \"1\" for the time you spend on it ...

This has been tested with and without other scripts on my mIRC and a new one. Everything worked as expected with no errors. Everyone else seemed to have no errors so I assume it is just you with the problem. I remove the return %c and added the extra bracket. Thank you noMen for pointing that out.

If it is only me with the problem why did you add a bracket? The code you gave originally doesn\'t show the popup menu! It was NOT tested!

Dude the popup menu was added after the comment moundtaindew made. The bottom line of the code was the alias. I made on mistake with the bracket and didn\'t realize that because I didn\'t feel like opening up my mIRC when I could have easily written the code as I submitted it.

After you have added something you should test it ... dude. Now get the combo list working ($dname 7).

The combo list works fine. This is lacking features if you call this an editor.

1. you can add new items/data but not able to edit them
2. add an option to create new ini files

The combo list stays empty when I call the dialog. I can only enter a letter and after that the ini files are shown in the table list. The idea is good, but it needs some rework.

xDaeMoN, you should be able to edit things. when you dclick the item it displays it in the editbox, allowing you to edit it all you want. as long as you have something in the editbox it will be fine. However, if there is no text in the editbox then nothing will happen. On the contrary, I am adding options to remove and create new ini files so that is on the way. =)

noMen, I have no clue why you are receiving that error. Due to it working for everyone else, I would have to say everything is in check. What would you like to see in a future update?

I\'ll help you ... dude, change:

Code:

combo 7, 5 118 82 13, drop

into:

Code:

combo 7, 5 118 82 100, drop

Only then I see the files when I click the down arrow of the combo-box.
Did anybody test this seriously??? xDaemon too????

@ noMen, yep I didn\'t have a problem on the combo box. I was able to see all the INI files in the drop down menu.

@xDaemon: you must have very good eyes to see all those files in a blue selection bar with a height of about one pixel . Or you don\'t have any ini files at all. \"combo 7, 5 118 82 13, drop\" drops down the combo list at most 13 dbu\'s down which is just a little bit more than the height of the edit field in the combi list. At least it is in my mIRC version (6.17).

I have tested the code in 6.21 & works fine. I did not test it in 6.3 yet but I would think it would work fine as well. You might want to try updating your mirc.

noMen, that shouldn\'t affect the combo at all. If I had a size after the x y w h parameters then that would come into effect. Without the forced size effect, it automatically readjusts itself. As xDaeMoN has stated, this was tested in 6.21 so that could be the problem.

That looks like the old version of this snippet. Have you tried the new one? I have no clue why that happens without the size option.

list 4, 76 9 47 89, size

^^much more helpful if you sort them

u need to friggin test ur script

when you try to add an item, it asks for item, data, then asks for item and data again

also, you should disable the - in the items until you click an item

when you remove stuff, i think that this would come in handy:

Code:

echo $$?!=\"Are you sure you would like to remove $did(name,id).seltext $+ ?)\"
if ($! == $true) {
do remove stuff...
}

you need to disable removes, and also disable the adds when theres no ini selected
