- Usage: SET INPUT_ALIASES [ON|OFF|TOGGLE]
- Turns ON or OFF the expanding of aliases in the inputline,
- If you set INPUT_ALIASES ON and type: ECHO $S
- you will see your server name echoed to your window. If it is
- OFF, you will see $S echoed to your window. INPUT_ALIASES now
- has no effect on expansions in the .ircrc and loaded files. To
- Make a line expand when a file is loaded, use EVAL <command>.
-
- Note also, that when INPUT_ALIASES is ON, text within (..) and {..}
- are not expanded. If you want them to be expanded then quote the
- leading ( or {. e.g. \( \{
-
- Additionally, You can return to full alias substitution
- within ${...} by enclosing the substitution text in
- [...]. Thus if $0 == test, and $bear == black
- ${[$0]} expands to "test"
- ${[$bear]} expands to "black"
- ${bear} also expands to "black"
- ${ bear == [black] } expands to "1",
- ${ [$0] == [test] } expands to "1"
- ${ [$0] == [black] } expands to "0"
- ${ [$0](this) } expands to the return value of $test(this)
-
- Note:
- If you do turn on INPUT_ALIASES in the .ircrc then the argument
- expandos ($*, $0, $1, $3-4, etc) will expand to the command line
- arguments passed to IRCII on startup.
