Short: pOpuP System with 500+ popups for AmIRC Author: zonkerz@starcafe.org (Zonkerz) Uploader: zonkerz starcafe org (Zonkerz) Type: comm/irc Version: .5 Beta Release Requires: rexxreqtools.library and Amirc 2.2 or better Architecture: generic pOpUp MaGiC v.5 Beta === Short Documentation === requires that AMIRC: be assigned to your amirc directory. and popups: assigned to your popups directory the installer script will install the popups: assign but won't take effect til next reboot. Do it by hand if you want to use it right away. PURPOSE: -------- For Fun - Entertainment of Friends - Displaying personalized messages by using macros. Contains Kicks, greets, Love, Funny and a variety of other popups. 500+ Popups included in the archive. INSTALLTION: ------------ Method 1: Use the enclosed Installation Script Method 2: 1. Copy popupmagic.amirx to AMIRC:rexx/ 2. In LIBS: you need rexxreqtools.library which you can download from AMINET which is located: RexxReqTools.lha util/rexx 65K 247 1.3 - requester for ARex 3. Assign popups: to the directory you have all the popups in. I have Assign Popups: Amirc:popups 4. Create a button for Amirc or an Alias a. As a Button I use gave it the name pOpUps and the action it takes is /rx popupmagic.amirx b. As an Alias you can easily do /pop /rx popupmagic.amirx USAGE: ------ Click on a username and hit your button or type your alias(Button really works better) then select from the directory listing of popups. Some Popups may bring up a requester where you can type in a message. What you put in this depends on each popup. Try them out is the only way to know what to say. Any popup ending in -Msg lets you put in a message Often you can do things like ==== Message text /====/ and your message text that you type would appear in the middle. CREATING POPUPS: ---------------- This is rather easy here too. Create a empty text file name is whatever you want the popup to be called then place your text into it. ie. /me hits $1 with a wet noodle. Do NOT use Control-M to end your text(this seems to cause problems at this time) MACRO DEFINITIONS IN POPUPS: ---------------------------- Standard PC Control-C / Control-K color codes are utilized in the text to display color to IRC Programs that support color. The Following Macros are acknowledged by the Popup interpreter (which is 100% written in arexx) $1 | This is replaced by Selected Nick $$1 | This is replaced by Selected Nick $2 | This is replaced by 2nd user in the user list $3 | This is replaced by 3rd user in the user list $4 | This is replaced by 4th user in the user list $5 | This is replaced by 5th user in the user list $6 | This is replaced by 6th user in the user list $7 | This is replaced by 7th user in the user list $8 | This is replaced by 8th user in the user list $9 | This is replaced by 9th user in the user list $me | This is replaced by your Nick in the text. $chan | This is replaced by the Channel Name in the text. $$? | This causes a message requester to appear and the $$? is replaced by what you type in that requester. Best to keep messages short. .timer | Timer is only recognized if it is last in the line it causes a delay before the next line is displayed. /timer 1 5 | would activate a 5 second timer once... 2 5 would do 10 seconds i left it as 2 lines to keep mirc compatiblity even though i don't treat it in exactly the same way. It also must be the only function on a line for it to work. $day | Current Weekday $month | Current Month $fulldate | The FUll date $me | Your Current nick $time | The Current time $?="ques" | would display to the user a question box asking for "Ques" or whatever you replace there. The popup then replaces the entire $?="aslkdjflkjdsafj" with what they answer. $+ | This is not implimented. $! | This is not implimented Any irc command is avaiable through it such as /sound /voice /op /deop /me /notice /msg DO_NOTS: -------- DO not USE $R or $Q in any of your popups. These are currently reserved for the Rainbow messages. Will be implimenting other macros in future versions of pOpUp MaGiC. AFTER INSTALLATION: ------------------- theres a few Aliases that you may enjoy. in the popups: directory pop popupmagicaliases-POPMEFIRST this will add the following commands to your line /smile /angel /mad /kiss /rose [nick] /brb /wb /lol /sad after you do this, save your default settings if you like them. ALSO TWO Special popups exist in the main part of the POPUPS: directory -------- RAINBOW -- Run this and a message requester will popup. Type your message in it and it will assign each word a seperate color and display it and RAINBOW2 -- Run this and a message requester will popup. Type your message in it and it will change each character to a different color, bold it and display on a black background. SPECIAL THANKS: --------------- To All The beta Testers: Stilskin, Funkman, ZimZum, StealthX, Fryer and Splatt :) Thanks goes out to Funkman and Stealth for creating some of the popups. Alot of thanks goes out to the users of #amirc undernet who put up with endless hours of non-stop popup testing :)) End: Enjoy -- #AmIRC Undernet --
