Scripting

Yoake has a scripting engine that closely follows real mIRC's syntax, applied to Telegram and WhatsApp chats. Opens from Tools > Aliases.../Popups.../Remote... (Script Editor), with four tabs: Aliases, Remote (events), Popups, Variables.

Everything is saved as real .ini files inside userData/scripts/ (aliases.ini, remote.ini, popups.ini, variables.ini) - also editable with an external text editor; the "Load..." button in the editor imports an external .ini file into the open tab.

Aliases

Custom commands, callable as /name:

hello {
  say Hi $1
}

Remote (events)

Every event runs BEFORE the corresponding default action (as in real mIRC): it can observe it and, where indicated, suppress it with haltdef (or stop it entirely with halt, only inside "on message").

Line visible in chat: as in real mIRC, join/part/kick/ op/deop/topic/nick always show a system line in chat (e.g. --> Mario has joined, * Mario is now an admin) - regardless of any script you've written, exactly as mIRC does by default. The script still runs, in addition, not instead of that line.

on op {
  echo $nick became admin of $chan
}

on nick {
  echo $nick is now called $1
}

on invite {
  echo ⚠️ $nick sent you an invite link: $1
}

on message {
  echo $nick wrote in $chan
}

on notice {
  if ($noticetype == missedcall) haltdef
}

Custom whois - replaces the default lines with a format of your own:

on whois {
  haltdef
  echo -a ── $nick ──
  echo -a Name: $1
  if ($2 != $null) echo -a Username: $2
  if ($4 == on) echo -a Status: 🟢 online
  elseif ($4 == off) echo -a Status: ⚫ offline
}

Block all calls - decline them right away and let the caller know instead of showing "Incoming call":

on call {
  haltdef
  rejectcall I don't take calls, message me instead!
}

Automatic video playlist - walks through a channel/group (e.g. a series' episodes) looking for videos with $msg() (see Identifiers) and moves to the next one on its own with on videoend:

alias playlist {
  set %pl.chan $1
  set %pl.idx 0
  playlist.next
}
alias playlist.next {
  inc %pl.idx
  while (%pl.idx <= $msg(%pl.chan,0)) && ($msg(%pl.chan,%pl.idx).type != video) {
    inc %pl.idx
  }
  if (%pl.idx > $msg(%pl.chan,0)) {
    echo -a Playlist finished.
    return
  }
  playmedia %pl.chan $msg(%pl.chan,%pl.idx).id
}
on videoend {
  playlist.next
}

Then just /playlist #ChannelName (or the window id) to start it. Note: $msg() only sees the messages already loaded in that window (open the channel and scroll up to load more, if needed).

Variables

On the Variables tab, one declaration per line: %name value. Usable as %name inside aliases/events/popups, anywhere in a script's text.

%greeting Hi from my alias!

hello {
  say %greeting $1
}

Example - a counter that survives restarts, with no need to declare it by hand on the Variables tab:

on message {
  set %counter $calc(%counter + 1)
  echo Messages received so far: %counter
}

Popups

Context menus (right-click) - same syntax as real mIRC, separate sections for each context:

On the Popups tab, the "View" dropdown (or the View menu at the top of the editor) chooses which section you're editing - each has its own text, as in the real mIRC editor. The "Popup" menu at the top shows a live preview of how the menu will be drawn as you write it.

Syntax: Label:command one entry per line, - for a separator, nested submenus with one extra dot per level. In [nicklist] popups, $1 and $nick are the nick you right-clicked:

Greet everyone:say Hi everyone!
